Good shots, I like the one of the Nova Centre site.

You have to close the image tags for each link on the second posting with [/IMG] to get them to show up.

Have there been any updates on when Fenwick is going to be completed or when they're going to start building those condos alongside it?

I think you have to reload the image by selecting the upload button, select the file on the browse line and under it you will see an option to resize the image.

Posted June 16 2010

According to the allnovascotia.com, WM Fares is buying 55 acres from Sobeys off Dunbrack in Rockingham and is proposing 922 units in a mixed use community that would include single dwellings, and low rise buildings from 3 - 11 storeys in height. It was unveiled tonight at St Benedict's Catholic Church

Does anyone have more details?

fenwick16 · #**1336** Posted **Jun 17, 2010, 3:59 AM**

Details on the new Bedford Waterfront plans were presented June 16 2010 at Basinview School (according to allnovascotia.com). Plans include a new landmark building that will be home to a library, ferry terminal (interesting) and cultural centre.

This is mostly a concept at this point which includes a man-made island, canals and possibly a marina. Maybe Dmajackson has more details.

Jstaleness · #**1337** Posted **Jun 17, 2010, 11:26 AM**

Just doing some thinking. Are we at 6 cranes in HRM now? I can think of Russel Lake, Cole Harbor, Hollis St, Trillium, Bayers Rd and Bedford West. Am I missing any?

beyeas · #**1338** Posted **Jun 17, 2010, 5:48 PM**

the sign just went up today... the former Tim's location on the corner of Barrington & Sackville is becoming a Starbucks.

(not sure if that was mentioned on here yet).

Glad to see SOMETHING there, since it is a such a prominent corner on Barrington. Hopefully just a small part of what seem to be a slow but steady turn around for that set of blocks.

i would have rather seen the tims stay there, i used it alot and were running low on them downtown, do we really need starbucks all over the place like an american city?

note that I said I was glad to see 'something' there... not that I am glad to see Starbucks there. Starbucks is, I will admit, a slight improvement over having another papered over set of windows this summer on Barrington.
