The Hydrostone is a neighbourhood in the North End of the Halifax Penninsula. It consists of ten short parallel streets and is bordered by Duffus Street to the north, Young Street to the south, Isleville Street to the west and Novalea Drive to the east.

The neighbourhood was designed by architect Thomas Adams to provide housing for working-class families displaced by the Halifax Explosion in 1917. The neighbourhood draws its name from the special cinderblocks from which the houses were constructed. Most of the dwellings are row-houses in groups of four and six, except for the large, two-storey single-family houses at the eastern end of each street. Some have been converted to sets of flats.

All of the streets in the Hydrostone are boulevards except Stanley Place. These boulevards have treed, grassy strips which serve as communal outdoor space for the neighbourhood.

It is a registered National Historic Site.

The suites are all 1200 sq ft plus - which is huge for a new condo in Halifax.
 Indoor parking spot and storage included.

20 left around the $300,000 mark.

I would  recommend  seeing the  model suite if you are looking at a condo in Halifax.

Walk to extra trendy Hydrostone Market and Enjoy the Bakery, The best pizza in town, or italian food!

Paul,
It looks like a lovely neighbourhood and I'm intrigued with the history.  The condo building is very beautiful and it sounds like the units are very desirable in size and an affordable price too.

Jo - Most of Halifax's north end got flattened during the Halifax Explosion on the harbour. You should google Halifax Explosion and see the history. It was the largest man made explosion until Hiroshima.

Nice community!

I recall diving through this neighborhood in Halifax. Although I didn't have much time here, I found the Market quite intriguing.
