Vacay.ca Tours Halifax’s Best Neighbourhood
It’s called the Hydrostone Market and it’s been hailed as the best neighbourhood in the Nova Scotia capital. Vacay.ca’s Marie Alice Downie recently visited the area and came away with a tale about the tony streets and talented artisans who occupy the Hydrostone.
Downie writes: “The north end of Halifax was one of the areas destroyed in the great explosion of December 6, 1917. By 1920, the district had been rescued from the ashes by the Scottish town planner Thomas Adams. Designed as an ‘English-style garden suburb,’ there were townhouses, and two-storey family homes, all made of the distinctive “Hydrostone” — blocks of hollow concrete, with grassy boulevards and back laneways.”
