Lunenburg Opera House

The Lunenburg Opera House is a building within the UNESCO World Heritage Site in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, Canada. In 1907, the land needed to build the Opera House was purchased by the Rising Sun Lodge of the International Order of Odd Fellows from C. E. Kaulbach for $3,560 and construction began on the Opera House in the same year. Construction was completed in 1908, and the building opened for its first concert that year. The Opera House operated as a vaudeville concert hall and live theatre until the 1940s, when it was converted to a cinema, the Capitol Theatre. The Capitol Theatre operated until the 1970s, and in the mid-1970s, the building was purchased by Jack Sheriff, a former English professor at Acadia University and longtime promoter of the arts in Nova Scotia. After Sheriff's death, the Folk Harbour Society, in collaboration with other Lunenburg organizations, launched a campaign to buy, restore and operate the building. However, restoration of the Lunenburg Opera House began in 2006 when it was purchased by businessman Farley Blackman. The decade-long renovation that followed saw a new roof, new siding, windows, doors, insulation, seating, and more added to the historic structure. Blackman purchased it following rumors that it could be turned into a condo building, with street-level shops selling t-shirts. In an article in the local newspaper, Lighthouse Now, he said, "I thought this building needed to be used for its original intent. It would be for the arts - the arts for arts' sake. It's an opportunity for people to learn without travelling the world. Let's have the world come to Lunenburg." In 2019, it was purchased by the Lunenburg Folk Harbour Society with financial help from the Fordi Family Foundation. The Lunenburg Opera House officially reopened on 5 October 2019 and the Lunenburg Folk Harbour Society has plans to use the building as an arts centre, a venue for the Lunenburg Folk Harbour Festival, as well as opening the space to rentals from other groups.

Луненбергский оперный театр

Оперный театр Луненберга — здание, внесенное в список Всемирного наследия ЮНЕСКО, в Луненберге, Новая Шотландия, Канада. В 1907 году земля, необходимая для строительства оперного театра, была куплена Ложей Восходящего Солнца Международного Ордена Odd Fellows у C.E. Каулбаха за 3560 долларов, и в том же году началось строительство оперного театра. Строительство было завершено в 1908 году, и в следующем году здание открылось. Оперный театр работал как концертный зал водевиля и действующий театр до 1940-х годов, когда он был преобразован в кинотеатр Capitol Theater. Капитол-театр работал до 1970-х годов, а в середине 1970-х здание было куплено Джеком Шерифом, бывшим профессором английского языка в Университете Акадии и давним популяризатором искусства в Новой Шотландии. После смерти Шерифа Общество Фолк-Харбор в сотрудничестве с другими организациями Луненберга начало кампанию по покупке, восстановлению и эксплуатации здания. Однако реставрация Луненбергского оперного театра началась в 2006 году, когда его приобрел бизнесмен Фарли Блэкман. Последовавшая за этим десятилетняя реконструкция обновила крышу, окна, двери, изоляцию, сиденья и многое другое, добавленное к исторической структуре. Блэкман купил театр после слухов о том, что его могут превратить в многоквартирный дом с уличными магазинами, торгующими футболками. В статье в местной газете «Lighthouse Now» он сказал: «Я думал, что это здание нужно использовать по его первоначальному назначению. Оно будет служить искусству — искусству ради искусства. Это возможность для людей познавать, не путешествуя по миру. Пусть весь мир придёт в Луненберг». В 2019 году театр был приобретен Lunenburg Folk Harbour Society при финансовой помощи Фонда семьи Форди. Оперный театр Луненберга официально вновь открылся 5 октября 2019 года, и Общество Луненберг Фолк-Харбор планирует использовать здание в качестве центра искусств, места проведения Фестиваля Lunenburg Folk Harbour Festival, а также открыть помещение для аренды другими группами.

Mayflower Curling Club

The Mayflower Curling Club is a curling club in Timberlea, Nova Scotia. It was established in Halifax, Nova Scotia in 1905. The club is one of the premier curling rinks in Nova Scotia, being home to teams headed by Colleen Jones, Mark Dacey, Shawn Adams, and Heather Smith-Dacey. The club was host for the curling events during the 2011 Canada Winter Games. History In 1912 the club's then-premises on Agricola Street was used as a temporary morgue for the bodies of Titanic disaster victims recovered from the North Atlantic by the Halifax-based ship the CS Mackay-Bennett, as it was the only site in the city that was both sufficiently large and cold enough for the task. Following the 1917 Halifax Explosion, the devastated Agricola Street rinks were rebuilt. In 2006, the Mayflower began hosting the Loose Ends Curling League, an LGBT league that is a member of the Canadian Pride Curling Association. In 2010, the league was hosting its Bluenose Bonspiel when Hurricane Earl hit the city—then-MP Justin Trudeau, whose regular events were cancelled, joined the bonspiel. Loose Ends and the Mayflower have twice hosted the Canadian Pride Curling Championships, most recently in 2023. In 2022, members of the club voted to sell the property and build a new ice facility in Timberlea, Nova Scotia. The club moved to the new facility in 2025.

Nova Scotia Archives

Nova Scotia Archives is a governmental archival institution serving the Canadian province of Nova Scotia. The archives acquires, preserves and makes available the province's documentary heritage – recorded information of provincial significance created or accumulated by government and the private sector over the last 300 years. History The idea for a provincial archives and a Provincial Archivist first took root on April 30, 1857 when a resolution was put forward in the Legislative Assembly (moved by Joseph Howe, and seconded by James W. Johnston), making it the first provincial archives in Canada. Thomas Beamish Akins, a lawyer, historian, archivist, and author, was appointed Nova Scotia's first Commissioner of Public Records from 1857 until his death in 1891. In 1931, the Nova Scotia Archives became the first provincial archives in Canada to have a purpose-built building. The Chase Building, designed by Andrew R. Cobb, still exists and is now home to the Math department of Dalhousie University. The current Public Archives Building, designed by Keith L. Graham, opened in 1980 to provide additional vault space and allow for the storage of all archival records under one roof. The department itself was formerly known as the Public Archives of Nova Scotia and was renamed Nova Scotia Archives & Records Management in 1997 after it assumed responsibility of government record-keeping. The former name is still used in certain applications, such as at the agency's headquarters at Robie Street and University Avenue in Halifax. It is a Division of the Department of Communities, Culture and Heritage. In 2011, the archives' official name changed to the Nova Scotia Archives. The Nova Scotia Archives continues to digitize large parts of its collections for viewing on their website. Their website contains approximately 70 virtual exhibits and databases, and features thousands of archival photos and documents. Nova Scotia Historical Vital Statistics, the Nova Scotia Archives' genealogy website, contains birth, death, and marriage records from 1763 to 1958 with new accruals being added every year. The Nova Scotia Archives is the home of the Royal Nova Scotia Historical Society. Provincial Archivist of Nova Scotia The Provincial Archivist of Nova Scotia is the senior official responsible for the management of the Nova Scotia Archives. The following people have served in this position: Daniel Cobb Harvey (1931–1956) Charles Bruce Fergusson (1956–1977) Hugh Taylor (1978–1982) Phyllis Blakeley (1982–1985) Carman V.

Архив Новой Шотландии

Архив Новой Шотландии (англ. Nova Scotia Archives) — государственный архив, ведущий в Новой Шотландии орган по организации и ведению архивного дела. Архив собирает, сохраняет и предоставляет доступ к документальному наследию провинции — записанной информации провинциального значения, созданной или накопленной правительством и частными лицами за последние 300 лет. Официальной датой основания архива принято считать 30 апреля 1857 года, когда в Ассамблее Новой Шотландии была выдвинута Джозефом Хау и поддержана Джеймсом Уилльямом Джонстоном резолюция о создании провинциального архива, тем самым архив Новой Шотландии стал первым подобным учреждением в Канаде. Первым Уполномоченным по государственным архивам Новой Шотландии (англ. Nova Scotia's Commissioner of Public Records) стал Томас Бимиш Экинс, юрист, историк, писатель и архивист. Экинс занимал эту должность с 1857 года вплоть до своей смерти в 1891 году. В 1931 году архив получил собственное здание, первым из подобных провинциальных архивов в Канаде. Чейз-билдинг, спроектированный Эндрю Рэндаллом Коббом, существует до сих пор: сейчас в здании располагается математический факультет Университета Дэлхаузи. Нынешнее здание архива, спроектированное Кейтом Л. Грэмом (англ. Keith L. Graham), было открыто в 1980 году в связи с расширением архива. Изначальное название учреждения Государственный архив Новой Шотландии (англ. Public Archives of Nova Scotia) в 1997 году было изменено на Архивное и документальное управление Новой Шотландии (англ. Nova Scotia Archives & Records Management) после того, как архив взял на себя ответственность по ведению государственного учёта. Прежнее название всё ещё используется в некоторых подразделениях, например, в штаб-квартирах архива на Роби-стрит и Юниверсити-авеню в Галифаксе. Архив Новой Шотландии занимается оцифровкой большей части своих коллекций для просмотра на своём веб-сайте. На нём содержится около 70 виртуальных выставок и баз данных, а также тысячи архивных фотографий и документов. Веб-сайт Архива генеалогии Новой Шотландии, Nova Scotia Historical Vital Statistics, содержит записи о рождении, смерти и браке в провинции с 1763 по 1958 год; каждый год добавляются новые данные. Архив является домом для Королевского исторического общества Новой Шотландии (англ. Royal Nova Scotia Historical Society), которое функционирует без офиса.

Park Lane (mall)

Park Lane is a three-storey shopping mall with 40+ shops in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. It is located on Spring Garden Road and is owned by Universal Properties. Overview Park Lane is located on Spring Garden Road in Halifax. Parking is available at a parking garage attached to the shopping centre. Park Lane was built in 1988, and opened that same year. A 1999 paper in the Canadian Journal of Urban Research called it the "premier fashion mall" in the city. The mall is located underneath a seven-storey office tower called Park Lane Terraces, which comprises 109,856 square feet (10,206.0 m2) of office space arranged around an atrium looking down into the shopping centre. History The plan in 1986 was for a $50-million building to be available by mid-1988, including office, retail and parking space, with Famous Players as a central tenant for six of twelve proposed cinemas. Robert McAlpine Ltd was contracted for the construction. The initial investors were Halifax Developments Ltd and Atlantic Shopping Centres Ltd, which as of 1991 remained co-owners of the mall. The two companies subsequently merged, and later became Crombie REIT, who put the mall up for sale in 2014. The Famous Players cineplex, the original anchor tenant at Park Lane, was called the "most ambitious multiple screen venue" in Halifax by Cinema Canada, and it more than doubled the number of screens in the city. It was purchased by Empire Theatres in 2004 and renovated. Empire was subsequently sold to the Cineplex Entertainment chain, and the cineplex was accordingly rebranded once again. The northern part of the mall originally comprised an eight-storey structure (a parking garage atop the retail levels) designed to accommodate the construction of a second tower on top at a later date. An 11-storey residential tower, called the Martello, was constructed at a cost of $22 million on top of the car park and opened in 2005. In June 2018, Park Lane was sold by Crombie REIT to Halifax-based Universal Realty Group. Some scenes from season 4 of The Sinner were filmed here. References

Point Prim Lighthouse

p4 Point Prim Lighthouse ist ein Leuchtturm auf Point Prim (Prim Point), einer felsigen Landzunge am westlichen Eingangspunkt von Digby Gut, der zwischen hohen Steilküsten gelegenen Tiefwasserpassage von der Bay of Fundy zum Annapolis Basin. Point Prim Lighthouse befindet sich ungefähr 8,5 km nördlich von Digby im Westen von Nova Scotia. Geschichte und Konstruktion Point Prim Lighthouse besteht aus einem weißen Beton-Turm mit roten vertikalen Streifen, roter Laterne und Galerie an der Ecke eines quadratischen Nebelsignal-Gebäudes. Der erste Leuchtturm entstand 1804 und brannte 1808 nach nur vier Dienstjahren ab. Der zweite von 1817 brannte im März 1873 nieder. Der dritte von 1874 wurde 1964 abgerissen und entsorgt, indem man ihn einfach über die Klippe rollte. Ein Freundeskreis, die Friends of Point Prim, übernahm 2011 die Instandhaltung des Leuchtturms und erhielt 2012 einen Zuschuss in Höhe von knapp 30.000 kanadischen Dollar vom Runciman Fund for Heritage Conservation der Heritage Canada Foundation. Die Friends of Point Prim errichteten einen neuen Parkplatz und ein Wegesystem und strichen den Leuchtturm 2013 neu. Die Gemeinde Digby erklärte sich bereit, den Leuchtturm im Oktober 2014 in Besitz zu nehmen, und die Station wurde 2015 als Heritage Lighthouse anerkannt. Das Eigentum wurde schließlich im August 2016 übertragen.

Point Prim Lighthouse

The current Point Prim Lighthouse is the fourth in a line of lighthouses built at Point Prim in Canada since 1804. It is located at the mouth of the Digby Gut, which connects the Bay of Fundy with the Annapolis Basin. It is located approximately 8.5 km outside Digby. Around the lighthouse is a small public park with trails and information boards about the history of the lighthouse and the geologic area. The park offers views of the Bay of Fundy and the Digby Gut. It is operated by The Friends of Point Prim and they have slowly gained support from local contributors who have donated two picnic tables. They have also applied for a grant from Heritage Canada to help with repairs and upkeep of the lighthouse and surrounding parkland. There are also interesting rock formations nearby.
