Halifax: A Visual Legacy

200+ iconic photographs of the city from 1853 to the present

by William D. Naftel

A journey through Halifax's photographic past -- a chance to remember and rediscover
Halifax has grown from a small garrison town to the bustling city it is today. This beautifully curated collection of over 200 key images shows the building of Halifax. Included are key public buildings and public spaces -- schools, universities, churches, parks, shopping centres -- along with street views and waterfront activity. Culled from many archival sources, the images document the city's rich heritage with the finest photographic images from every period.
