RBC Waterside Centre
Stop outside RBC Waterside Centre to compare heritage street façades with a contemporary glass tower. It is a brief architectural observation near Halifax’s older waterfront buildings.
The contrast at Duke and Hollis streets shows how redevelopment has reshaped downtown Halifax. Older street-level building fabric survives within a modern office development, rather than as a row of complete historic interiors. Looking at it alongside nearby Historic Properties and Granville helps distinguish different treatments of the city’s commercial architecture.
What to look for
Heritage street-level façades sit below a contemporary glass office tower.
The Duke and Hollis corner makes the contrast between old and new easy to see.
Useful to know
Compare the exterior with nearby Historic Properties and Granville’s older commercial streets.
