Halifax urban wind power

Dropped in for a visit and got a quick and constant reminder of wind.
Has there ever been any thought to mounting appropriate wind turbines on buildings in City? Some other cities mount solar panels on Government buildings or geo-thermal or garden roofs where it is sustainable.
There are some new designs now that are not as offensive. It would be a fairly constant source.
Seems like an opportunity to harness what's already there and maybe help with reducing hydro costs. Use it to offset the power to the Metro Center.
