Informations supplémentaires

This is the façade of the St. Mary’s Young Men’s Total Abstinence and Benevolent Society building, one of several church-related institutional buildings built on this part of Barrington Street in the late 19th century. In 1907, the Benevolent Society building became the Nickel Theatre, Halifax’s first permanent movie house. It continued to be a movie theatre, changing hands several times until it was occupied by the National Film Board. The architect was J.C. Dumaresq, who also designed the City Club, next door, and the St. Mary’s Glebe in the same year and in the same style. The building was heavily damaged by fire in the early 1990s, leaving only the shell. At present, the property is the subject of an agreement with the Municipality to preserve and integrate the façade into the development of a new building.
