2706 Fern Lane is next on the chopping block to be demolished and turned into another North-End car dealership. "Street Car District", more like Car Dealership District. What does Lindell Smith have to say about these #gentrifying developments? @VirginiaHinch #saveourcity
Despite Bloomfield being a part of North End history, the city has tried to rebrand the area for private sale as the “Streetcar District”, despite no streetcars ever being there. What does Lindell Smith have to say about these lies? halifaxnoise @VirginiaHinch #halifaxnoise
Building condos is Lindell Smith's idea of better tourism, when really these doomed out of town retail entities on the ground floor price out the lower income residents in the community, and will just become empty retail spaces for rotating international chains. halifaxnoise
Workers recently destroyed the Bloomfield public children’s skatepark area by pouring rocks and tearing up the concrete. What does Lindell Smith have to say about these intimidation tactics on public property? Imagine Bloomfield Mike Savage @VirginiaHinch halifaxnoise
The iconic houses on May st are confirmed to be demolished soon. With its 2 story limit, this historic neighbourhood will be reduced to rubble and turned into another car dealership. Will we standby while our heritage is paved over? Mike Savage Lindell Smith halifaxnoise
Why won’t Lindell Smith or Mike Savage speak on this important issue? Halifax has a housing crisis that affects everyone. The last thing the peninsula needs is more car dealerships. halifaxnoise @VirginiaHinch halifaxexaminer.ca/featured/demol…
Despite outcry, Lindell Smith says there is nothing he can do to protect these properties from being demolished into parking lots. Is there no way to relocate and recycle much needed housing instead of letting it disappear? msn.com/en-ca/news/can… halifaxnoise Mike Savage
We can still save Bloomfield from sale into private hands! Our officials are yet to prove that Public Interest and Affordable Housing are their priorities. Take 5 seconds and help our community be heard! rb.gy/xfg04t Lindell Smith Imagine Bloomfield Mike Savage
It's comforting to hear that Colonial Honda cannot expand their parking lot. Even still, housing is being demolished. What are our elected officials doing to counter this loss of low income housing? Who's home is next? Lindell Smith Mike Savage halifaxnoise Friends Of Halifax Common
Goodbye to more historic buildings on the peninsula. The future of Halifax looks like all apartment towers and parking lots Mike Savage halifaxnoise Lindell Smith @VirginiaHinch #halifaxnoise
Halifax has 8.6M allotted for housing. The Bloomfield lot is still a perfect opportunity for this investment, but councillors are silent. Will our officials act on public interest or financial incentive? Lindell Smith Mike Savage CBC Nova Scotia shorturl.at/aflM2 halifaxnoise
If affordable housing was a priority it wouldn't be a problem. Why are Halifax Mayor & Council selling off public land to private developers with virtually nothing in return? North end resident wants more info on Bloomfield Centre sale halifaxtoday.ca/local-news/nor… via HalifaxToday
The May St houses are gone. Despite vague reassurance from Lindell Smith just months ago, another sentimental part of Halifax has been destroyed. Seems like officials care more about car dealerships than the housing crisis.
