Cunard Block application set for winter

The Cunard Block development project on the Halifax waterfront has now moved on to another phase.
Two conceptual designs for the property were unveiled by Waterfront Development Corp. Ltd. in June, when the provincial Crown corporation invited public feedback.
As of Dec. 1, the project moved forward into the design development phase.
....
The corporation wants to see a mixed-use project built on the property, located on Lower Water Street north of the new Nova Scotia Power headquarters by Marginal Road, that will include an 18-storey apartment tower housing 275 units. The project would incorporate public spaces and have anywhere from 20,000 and 40,000 square feet of commercial space.
Lydon Lynch Architects of Halifax led a team that worked on the two initial conceptual designs. The next phase will move forward with a new team of experts led by Michael Napier Architecture and Ekistics Planning & Design.
....
Construction is expected to begin in the spring of 2013.
“It’s an aggressive timeline, trying to get the project to a point where construction would begin in 2013, and that’s our intent, and so we’re working hard with all the project partners to work toward that.”
