The reality in Halifax, particularly outside of the HRM by Design planning area, is that it can take many years for proposals to be approved and for construction to start. Not hearing anything for a year doesn't necessarily mean anything.
Most of the projects I've followed have ultimately ended up being built even if it took a decade.
The biggest exception to this so far is the United Gulf site (former TexPark). Another one is the King and Alderney lot in Dartmouth. The United Gulf site is a bit ironic since it was one of the earliest big proposals but it's still empty even though it's surrounded by new buildings now; far more new construction than most people would have predicted 10 or 15 years ago.
