Series Information:
The "districts" and "areas" series is based upon my Developments Map (see above for link). It is designed to allow discussion on the district in general and provide a place for smaller developments in the area to have a place to be discussed. Larger projects will have a seperate thread that will be linked to this post in the space above.
This thread is the second of the series and will focus on the district commonly referred to as Fairview (Halifax-Fairview).This area lies within the area surrounded by Joseph Howe Drive (minus a portion), Bicentennial Drive (Highway 102), Mainland Commons, Glenforest Drive, Lacewood Drive, and the Bedford Basin.
To open up the discussion I thought I'd ask a hypothetical question ...
If car dealerships were to ever make a bad financial decision (tough to believe,eh?) and had to shut down the car dealerships around 44 Bedford Highway, how would you like to see the lands redeveloped?
Things to keep in mind; its in a medium-high density area, Bayview Condos is consolidating the entrances into a single stop-light, its in a quarry (low land), adjacent to the container Terminal (views of water & industry), and unless more property is included only accessible via the Bedford Highway.
