You're both correct - it's both hospital and university territory. The old Grace Maternity Hospital on the north side of University Avenue (corner of Summer Street) is clearly identifiable in that photo, and was on land donated by Dalhousie on its campus. Directly across University, on the south side, you can see the old Halifax Children's Hospital (long, low three-storey brick building; predecessor to the IWK), and, beside it to the east, the old Civic Hospital.
I'd circle them for easier identification but lack the know-how...
