Historic Halifax

[someone123]

There's still a fair amount of neon on Granville Street in Vancouver today, although not to the level of those photos, and it is a bit sketchy. Granville has a collection of nice old performance venues like the Commodore and Orpheum. The Orpheum is roughly the Vancouver equivalent of what the Capitol would have been in Halifax. It had an unfortunate 70s era facade redo but the interior is nice and has a sense of grandeur. There is also the Queen Elizabeth Theatre nearby which is the maybe the premiere performing arts venue in the city, to which Halifax doesn't really have an equivalent.

I remember Odyssey 2000 but I think it was.. around Robie maybe, in the 2000s? It's interesting to me how these businesses moved around.
