[-Harlington-]

A few different angles of the city from yesterday :

Love the different angles ususaly just see the standard view but there are good shots of the south end and one of dartmouth that look more dense!

How many development can you spot?

Nice photo. For a long time this area was more or less static, but lately there's been tons of construction activity. It will look great when those parking lots are finally built on, and I think the added population will have a noticeable positive impact on local businesses. Hopefully the old obsession with luring suburban shoppers with cheap parking will be forgotten.

Good god, I cant believe what an awesome area this is becoming. Awesome photo!

Central Library, City Centre Atlantic, Trillium, All Saints, TD Bank Building at 5495 SGR ...

Did I miss any?

In the future - YMCA/CBC and the Sister Sites development ...

Great picture SekishikiMeikaiHa

Yeah SekishikiMeikaiHa, great shot. I am very excited for this area and the density difference there will be in a few years!

[SekishikiMeikaiHa]

Thanks all!

Dartmouth, from the Halifax waterfront :





I think because of kings wharf and the possible development of Dartmouth cove the Woodside area view will be the best to see the Dartmouth skyline in time .

This view of the skyline will be more appreciable after the redevelopment of Fenwick.
And the destruction of the grain elevator.

A few I took yesterday from a unique angle. Sorry for the phone quality.

If you go here they have a panorama taken from a similar perspective in 2003: http://webcam.chebucto.net/

The differences in some areas are huge. In particular, Spring Garden Road and the Barrington/South area have changed a lot.

HALIFAX, May 23, 2012 /CNW/ - UPS is in your neighbourhood Halifax! A UPS package car on its way to visit the Halifax Citadel; and to the left a picturesque image of the Old Town Clock. UPS operations in Halifax begin Monday, May 28, 2012. http://cnw.ca/Ablzn

UPS truck blocking the view.

UPS operations begins? We've had UPS for years.

[DigitalNinja]

We've had drop off points for UPS, but Purolator did all the delivering and warehouse stuff. They just opened up their warehouse here.

Somebody call the HT/STV. This will destroy our tourist industry if evil, profit seeking, UPS blocks our right to view the iriving refinery.

On a serious note... why in the world would the truck drive up citadel hill? That's terrible logistics coordination.
