An exciting prospect, my friend. This is partly why I'm of the opinion that we're all very fortunate to witness Halifax's growth spurt, further fuelled by the shipbuilding contract.
We're impressed now, but we should be seeing an interesting domino effect of developments in the coming years.
I wonder, though, if any part of the northern peninsula were to develop, if that would be considered part of the downtown? I'm enthusiastic about developments that break character with traditional Halifax. Whereas the downtown is a blend of the old and new, structurally communal height wise in respect of the Citadel and the city's heritage--areas away from the downtown, including the peninsula's north end, may host developments that we'd
never see nor desire to have in our downtown.
The north end is ripe'n'ready.
