Description | This riding is home to the Halifax Dockyards, Fairview Cove Container Terminal, Northwood Manor and the Leeds St. campus of the Nova Scotia Community College. It also contains the original site of Africville, one of earliest black settlements in the province.
The riding contains a lot of public housing, apartments rented by students and thriving small businesses. There's a mix of seniors, families and young single people. The "north end," as it's known locally, is ethnically diverse, with stores and services on Gottinegn Street reflecting a variety of cultures, including MikMaq, African-Canadian, Middle Eastern and Nigerian.
In the 2003 redistribution, the riding added a corner of Halifax Citadel, the area between Cogswell Street in the north and Rainie Drive/Duke Street in the south. |
