Identified! Sewer project on Queen Street after Morris

from Halifax Municipal Archives

  • Halifax Municipal Archives said:
    It has been suggested by a researcher that this photo could be of Queen St near Morris St, looking north towards Spring Garden Rd, with the old Halifax Infirmary on the right hand side of the photo. What do you think?
  • Ryan Tucker said:
    Definitely looks like Queen Street after Morris. 1320 Queen on the left and the Old Infirmary on the right. The facade and fencing on the right match an old photo of the Infirmary (www.facebook.com/share/p/1H5ZeKJVVv/?mibextid=wwXIfr)
  • Halifax Municipal Archives said:
    Thanks, Ryan Tucker! It does look like this is most likely the Halifax Infirmary. We'll update the database description to reflect the location.
