Halifax B Mk.III reconstruction at the Yorkshire Air Museum, Elvington. This composite reconstruction started in 1984 and took 10 years to complete. It includes an 8 mtr section of fuselage from a 58 Squadron Halifax Mk.II ‘HR792’ which crashed on the Outer Hebrides in January 1945 and was subsequently used as a chicken coop for many years before being acquired for the restoration in 1984. The wings are from a Handley Page Hastings transport ‘TG536’, and the nose and tail sections were largely fabricated from scratch by the restoration team. The port side of this aircraft, visible on this photograph is painted to represent ‘LV907’ ‘Friday the 13th’ (NP-F) which completed 128 operations with 158 Squadron. The starboard side is painted as 'NP763' (H7-N) an aircraft of 346 'Guyenne' Squadron, Free French Air Force. This squadron was one of two French bomber squadrons based at RAF Elvington during WWII.

Purdy's Wharf is an office complex located in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Built over the water at the edge of Halifax Harbour and resting on pilings, it consists of two office towers, and a smaller office structure called Purdy's Landing. Purdy's Landing is commonly referred to as the "Xerox building", due to a large Xerox sign that used to hang on the exterior of the building. The complex also contains a seven-story parkade as well as pedways connecting the complex to Casino Nova Scotia and the Downtown Halifax Link system.
Purdy's Wharf has a unique, energy-efficient cooling system that works by circulating sea water through a heat exchanger system with the building's cooling water. The colder sea water chills the building's cooling water, which is then circulated through the buildings.
On our second day in Halifax for the Unison Choruses Festival, I started the day with a short walkabout in the downtown and waterfront prior to the start of the event as I had some time to kill before festival delegate registration began. There weren't any actual festival concerts until the evening, but I needed to connect with the organizers ahead of the busy days to come.
