CBC Radio Building, Streamline Moderne broadcasting facility in Halifax, Canada.

The CBC Radio Building was a Streamline Moderne office building completed in 1933 at the corner of Sackville and South Park streets, overlooking the Halifax Citadel and Public Gardens. Designed by Sydney Perry Dumaresq for Fred C. Manning, it had curved corners, horizontal bands, and a rooftop parking deck reached by a special elevator. A transmission tower stood on the roof during its CBC years.

Completed in 1933 for businessman Fred C. Manning, the building first housed his United Service Corporation car dealership, gas station and head office, designed by architect Sydney Perry Dumaresq. CBC Radio moved in during 1944, installed a transmission tower on the roof, and bought the property in 1981. CBC broadcast its final shows there in November 2014, and demolition began in March 2016.

At the invitation of regional radio director Bill Donovan, the building gave free offices to Debut Atlantic and the St. Cecilia Concert Series. In 1993 it took in the Atlantic Film Festival after a 1991 fire destroyed the festival's space at the National Film Board centre on Barrington Street. The Centre for Art Tapes, the Atlantic Filmmakers Cooperative, Mocean Dance and Live Art Dance also worked there.

The building was demolished in March 2016, so there is no exterior left to visit; the site and the adjacent YMCA now hold two 13-storey residential buildings. The rooftop parking reached by a dedicated elevator was a feature of the 1933 structure, not of anything standing today. Look for the residential towers at the corner near the Citadel and Public Gardens.

Max Ferguson launched his radio career at this location in 1946, creating characters that influenced Canadian broadcasting entertainment for decades. These early performances, developed within these walls, helped shape how radio comedy would evolve across the country.
