THe only archive on flickr commons to ruin every single picture with an ugly logo on the corner of every single image.

www.flickr.com/photos/146237924@N02/ if you need a clean image of any of our content, please email archives[at]halifax.ca. We decided to watermark our images after finding them for sale on commercial sites. We invest a lot in preserving original photographs, digitizing them and documenting all the details we have on them to share with the public so people can enjoy them. If they want to profit from their use we ask that they contact us.

Is it the Halifax Infirmary on Queen St, Halifax being built?
-
Halifax Municipal Archives said:
Good suggestion, Jane MacNeil but this postcard of the Infirmary (www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=vgJ8mSe...) shows it had 5 stories and just rectangular window openings, unlike this image.
The Halifax Infirmary was constructed in 1933, and we had pegged the cars pictured in this image earlier than that - but if any car-buffs can weigh in on that, maybe we can get a better date estimate. -

This building replaced the hotel that burnt down on Hollis Street

Thanks www.flickr.com/photos/193508122@N07/ , do you have more details, such as where on Hollis, or which hotel? We can check the Street Directories for the 1910s with a few more details.
