HALIFAX – Once Queen Elizabeth High School is demolished, the land is to be used in the interim as an urban farm – a novel use of the land for the time being (it’s slated to be used for expansion of the hospital in the future). The idea to turn the area into an urban farm spawned when Capital Health and the Dalhousie University’s Cities and Environment Unit organized a public consultation on November 21, 2010. Spacing Atlantic covered the public consultation and offers a point of reference for ongoing developments.
Capital Health and Dalhousie University’s Cities and Environment Unit will be compiling and displaying feedback they received from the first four public sessions for the public to give further input to the projects development.
