Historic Properties, National historic site and architectural ensemble near Halifax Harbour, Canada
The Historic Properties consist of stone and wooden warehouses along Halifax's waterfront, now renovated for commercial and cultural purposes.
The buildings were constructed between 1815 and 1905, representing the maritime commerce growth during Halifax's development as a major Canadian port.
These waterfront structures demonstrate the evolution of commercial architecture through their heavy timber frames, sandstone details, and functional designs.
Located on Upper Water Street, the buildings house numerous shops, restaurants, and galleries, with direct access to Halifax's harbor walkways.
The rehabilitation project in 1972 preserved the exterior appearance from 1900 while adapting the interiors to modern commercial requirements.
