  • Mapping the Development of Condominiums in Halifax, Ns 1972 - 2016
    MAPPING THE DEVELOPMENT OF CONDOMINIUMS IN HALIFAX, NS 1972 - 2016 by Colin K. Werle Submitted in fulfillment of the requirements of GEOG 4526 for the Degree Bachelor of Arts (Honours) Department of Geography and Environmental Studies Saint Mary’s University Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada © Colin Werle, 2017 April, 2017 Members of the Examining Committee: Dr. Mathew Novak (Supervisor) Assistant Professor, Department of Geography and Environmental Studies, Saint Mary’s University Dr. Ryan Gibson School of Environmental Design and Rural Development University of Guelph ABSTRACT Mapping the Development of Condominiums in Halifax, NS from 1972 – 2016 by Colin K. Werle This thesis offers foundational insight into the spatial and temporal patterns of condominium development in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Characteristics that are analysed include: age, assessed values, building types, heights, number of units, and amenities. Results show that condominium development in Halifax first appeared in the suburbs in the 1970s, with recent activity occurring in more central areas. The greatest rate of development was experienced during a condominium boom in the late 1980s, however, development has been picking up over the last decade. Apartment style buildings are the major type of developments, with an average building size of 46.52 units. Similar to other markets in Canada, Halifax’s condominium growth does appear to be corresponding with patterns of re- centralization after decades of peripheral growth in the second half of the twentieth-century. April, 2017 ii RÉSUMÉ Mapping the Development of Condominiums in Halifax, NS from 1972 – 2016 by Colin K. Werle Cette dissertation donnera un aperçu des tendances spatiales et temporelles de base sur le développement des condominiums à Halifax (Nouvelle-Écosse).

  • Daylighting in Halifax's Urban Core
    PLAN 5000 Darryl McGrath B00689518 Instructor: Ahsan Habib Daylighting in Halifax’s Urban Core A case study-based analysis of the proposed daylighting of Sawmill River in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia Executive Summary River daylighting projects are becoming an increasingly popular way for cities to reshape their urban environment in an attempt to achieve multi-faceted beneficial outcomes. Several high- profile daylighting projects in recent years (such as those in Seoul, South Korea and Yonkers, New York) have brought this type of urban restoration closer to the mainstream consciousness. These cases and others are reviewed to gain an understanding of the processes, potential benefits and challenges, motivations, and common results that might be expected from the undertaking of a river daylighting project. This is done specifically to inform what the potential might be for a daylighting initiative in the Halifax urban core area. Sawmill River in Dartmouth is a timely candidate for daylighting and the push is on during the formation of this report for the city to decide how to proceed. After reviewing the local conditions in Dartmouth (the suitability of the site, the specific relevant goals of the proposed project, the policy context, the financial case and the local climate of the citizenry) this report confidently recommends the Sawmill River for daylighting. This project has the potential to provide Dartmouth with an array of significant benefits as the city contemplates how to reinvigorate itself. It is high time for the Halifax government to take a bold step and enable Dartmouth to engage in this unique endeavour that aligns Figure 1: Conceptual rendering of historical river course.

Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta T6G 2E3, Canada ¶ 3. Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources, P.O. Box 698, Halifax, Nova Scotia B3J 2T9, Canada Fine-grained metasedimentary rocks of the Halifax Group in southern mainland Nova Scotia can be subdivided into mappa- ble units. In Halifax Peninsula, pyrite-rich hornfels, black slate, metasiltstone, and metasandstone of the Cunard formation are overlain by grey metasedimentary rocks with abundant cross- laminations and local carbonate and calc-silicate concretions, assigned to the Bluestone formation, the highest part of the succession exposed in Halifax Regional Municipality. The most suitable type section lies along a railway cutting and adjacent roads into Point Pleasant Park. No fossils are known from the Bluestone formation but lithological correlatives elsewhere contain graptolites and acritarchs indicating Tremadocian age. Contact metamorphism produced cordierite + biotite + muscovite + albite + ilmenite + pyrrhotite in pelitic horizons throughout Point Pleasant Park. The cordierite-in isograd marks the outer limit of the contact aureole north of a con- spicuous grain elevator; the biotite-in isograd is predicted to lie ~200 m to the south. Andalusite ± K-feldspar appear west of Northwest Arm; the andalusite-in isograd is interpreted to run under the Arm, curving inland towards Williams Lake. The distribution of andalusite contrasts markedly with the underly- ing Cunard formation, where chiastolite appears before biotite in graphitic slates in the outer aureole.
