Wainhouse Terrace
Here is what's left of Wainhouse Terrace complete with Wainhouse Tower in the background. Mr Wainhouse decided to 'upgrade' a row of terraces in 1876 with the addition of a 200 foot balcony overlooking the ornamental colonnade we see here. A little bit of Mediterranean glamour for downtown Halifax, but the Yorkies won in the end as the glamour apparent in the attached links has long gone, as did the terraces back in 1978. The initials JEW (John Edward Wainhouse) and the date 1876 are still visible in the front wall of what remains.
