Apparently, there are 6.5 hectares of prime development lots available at Cogswell. I would question that. 6.5 hectares = 16 acres. The Public Gardens is 16 acres. If you were to take the poorly laid out lots at Cogswell and superimpose them over the Public Gardens it might equate to 4 acres. Cogswell is poorly managed and the landscaping is abysmal. HRM landscapes by planting maple trees in an urban dense environment. Maple trees are too large for this application. The landscaped sections of Cogswell don’t appear to be very well maintained. Things need to change and fast.
