that brought back some memories!
In the mid-70s I attended a broadcasting school located in the bowels of the then-Trademart building. We operated a 24-hour cable radio station (CRXL) and the only access after-hours was through the Lobster Trap. Which was a real eye-opener for a green kid in those days when you had to be 21 to be inside such a place.
One of our newcomers, a fresh-faced kid just off the bus from Cape Breton, was embarrassed when she had to push by a provocatively-dressed woman she took to be a prostitute, standing at the door to the Trap late one night.
She was even more appalled when we pointed out to her, that wasn't a woman.
Ahhh, the days when Halifax was colourful....
