The district contains the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic and the Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21, presenting regional maritime traditions.

Halifax Transit operates numerous bus routes and ferry services throughout downtown, connecting major commercial areas with residential neighborhoods.
