Old Halifax home gets heritage status, and for now, saves it from demolition

Rogers says Dalhousie has a number of other historic buildings which add a lot to the area, but the property on Edward Street is not one of them.The lawyer also took issue with the fact that the heritage application came from a third party, rather than the owner.

Dalhousie “strongly feels” it was not given adequate process rights on the fate of its property, he added. However, Walt took issue with that characterization of the home, saying it’s insulting to the families who “lovingly” cared for it.She also said she was inside the home the day before Dalhousie took possession and didn’t see any of the described interior damage.

Some councillors also took offence to Rogers’ criticism of the heritage designation process, with Coun. Waye Mason saying “the process has been followed as it is laid out.”Questioned about the school’s plan for the building, Gitta Kulczycki, vice-president of finance and administration at Dalhousie, said it was purchased as part of a long-term vision for the school.

“It’s perfectly adaptable. They have room in the back to build up, they could have a multiplex there. My fondest wish would be a home for international students, possibly named after Mrs. Sapp. They could have it as a faculty/departmental building.
