The car is a 1964 Chevrolet.

Corner of Cornwallis and Bauer looking up towards the Commons?
Halifax Municipal Archives said:
Thanks for another date verification Bill Jarvis!
Halifax Municipal Archives said:
That does look like the right distance down from the Commons, Cara MacDonald - but since the building on the corner is not the same as the row-houses there now, we can't be sure. Any other clues?

Looks like Vernon at Pepperell, looking north toward Canadian Tire at the corner, and Saint Joseph's Orphanage on the other side of Quinpool. Refs: Aerial overview of the city - Quinpool Road (Retrieval Code #102-105-1-49-1088-54) and Vernon St. [corner of Pepperell St.] (Retrieval Code 102-39-1-1272)

The Chevrolet has a 1960 license plate, which was also used in 1961. The Studebaker does not have the 1961 windshield sticker, so the photo probably dates to 1960.
Halifax Municipal Archives said:
Good eye Bill Jarvis ! When we can zoom into those license stickers it is really helpful for dating photos. We may never nail the location down, unless someone recognizes those tall buildings in the background.

Could the building in the back on the right be the old Halifax infirmary?
Halifax Municipal Archives said:
Abbie Hudson Hi Abbie! It looks like it definitely could be the Halifax Infirmary, but we couldn't completely be sure, so I've just labelled the photo with that as a possibility for now. Thanks for your help!

The buildings in the background are ~80-90 Hollis Street (new civic ~1496 Hollis Street). I think that would mean this photo was taken from the north side of Salter (between Lower Water and Hollis)... possibly from a back/side yard of 5 Salter Street (Ref. Retrieval Code 102-39-1-1321)
