If you read through the linked site from which those old photos were posted, there is an explanation as to why they were torn down (retrospectively, an unfortunate case of poor planning and judgement, in my opinion).

These Structures were all demolished in the early 1980’s to make way for a never constructed office tower.

Take a look at this postcard view (from the site linked above) and you will see between the Dennis Building and the Cragg Building (on the corner of George and Barrington), a smallish 3-storey building with 3 windows on each level, that abutted the Dennis Building and would have shared that stone wall imprint that you see today.



Also I want to give props to the blog author and SSP forum member Peter Ziobrowski for creating the excellent blog that I linked to. If you have a few moments (like many of us do in isolation these days), I recommend that you read through it. It is most interesting and informative, if you have a desire to learn about Halifax's built history.
