I find this building very intriguing, certainly like nothing else on the waterfront in Halifax. I like it though. I wonder if the absence of balconies will affect it's desirability? Aside from that, if I were to consider a move back to Halifax in retirement, I might consider this building. How much will the units be going for? |
When I was down there for Ribfest last Friday I couldn't help but notice how close the lower level and wharf were to the current sea level. I know this was taken into account by the developer, but man if we so much as get a weak hurricane this fall I see no reason why water wouldn't overtop most of it.

Wow!!

Here's another shot I stumbled upon of the tug wharf during the storm:

So I was just walking by and saw that there are a few pieces of perforated metal screen up on the Lower Water Street side. However, they are very... silver. Definitely not red/copper/Muntz metal. Does anyone know what's up with this?
Maybe that location is silver accents? Or maybe there's another layer to go on? Or maybe they need to be sprayed with something to get a chemical change? Or maybe the colour comes with age? I sure hope they haven't swapped out the planned material. |

Interesting info.
I'm interested on how the "submarine room" effect works for the parking garage. Does it have the ability to sense water influx and thus seal itself off, or does there have to be some sort of manual intervention? |

The stone stairs to the water are in and look quite nice. There's a lot of work going on finishing the wharves. Does anyone know if this is the last season for the sea bridge?

If they build the Cunard block... it may be back....

Where would the Seabridge be used exactly, when the Cunard gets underway?
