I always liked the old Angus shops. It's a bit of a shame it's now a Loblaws, but its better than it being used to store recycled paper and burning to the ground like what happened to the old CN shops in Point Saint Charles.

The area around the Angus shops though is borderline suburban though despite being in the middle of the city, having all been rail yards for years and only recently developed.

I always get really nostalgic walking near the Big O...

A few random shots around Halifax from the past couple months :) First off, the improvements to YHZ. The terminal is looking a lot more uniform (and modern) and less like a weird mishmash of 70s office buildings.

Here are a few photos from a recent trip to PEI. They aren't of the greatest quality but I thought they might be interesting to some - PEI gets little to no exposure on this forum (possibly owing to the complete lack of urbanity :P). My grandparents are from Summerside, the second-largest town on the island.

This lone bank is funny little landmark in a field along the highway.

Housing at the former CFB Summerside, which closed in 1991.
http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l217/halps00/d1d5262a.jpg

Since then, the town has worked hard to avoid decline:
http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l217/halps00/316b77e9.jpg

Today, the Summerside Tax Centre is the town's largest employer. Other major operations include a Pratt & Whitney engine facility, Holland College, the Atlantic Police Academy, and the College of Piping.
http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l217/halps00/6c2ef33c.jpg

We visited the new leisure centre being finished in time for this year's Canada Games, which includes an arena, 25m pool, gym, bowling alley, and a conference centre.

The new hospital opened a few years ago:
http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l217/halps00/4500b7ef.jpg

I know most here (myself included) would find it a bit too quiet, but there is a sense of civic pride I quite like, along with the relaxing pace of life you find in any rural area. My grandparents left the island and lived all over Canada over the years, but I can see why they retired here!

I absolutely love PEI. I have never actually spent any time in Summerside, but have certainly spent time in Charlottetown, and in and around the island 'interior', which in my opinion is the most picturesque place in this entire great big country. I can't say I personally see myself ever living in PEI, but what I wouldn't give to be able to own a recreational property there (and the funds to commute back and forth to use it. Ha!). Charlottetown in the height of tourist season has an impressive urban mass downtown considering the size of the 'city', to go along with some of the best pizza I ever had at a restaurant who's name for the life of me I can't recall.

Sure looks very busy in that picture! ;) It's quite an impressive highway for a city the size of Halifax. When I was there 3 years ago there was a lot of construction at the 111/118 interchange, it was very new and large. In fact, Halifax seems to have a very well-developped highway network compared to other cities of similar size. Great city btw! :tup:

Yeah i notice it living in Toronto now, there is a serious lack of green here... there seems to be a tendancy to just pave over places where a little vegitation could go a long way to improving the feel of the street. Little things can make the biggest difference.

Hey flar, How come you didn't post the "Super Mega Ottawa Pano" that goes with those shots? It is the best Ottawa photograph ever. I loved seeing it over at the skyline thread.
