Halifax Common — Attraction in Halifax

A delightful green space at the hearts of Halifax is a welcome and practically useful in a delightful socially enhancing fashion I provide only 4 stars due to the elements of excessive "public" duress that is placed under due to under maintenance And over use. A green space at the heart of a city is not something to be taken for granted it is a wonderful opportunity 4 people and their pets and multiple ball fields with a skatepark and a military Bass in the most elevated Hill and the highest point in the area adding to it's exploring expatriate appeal. Which is a controversial Pro versus con notion however in the future I feel it to be a definite Pro as it is well maintained on the military side and very accurate and it's projection of excellent accurate historical value in continuity. (Minor note:the washrooms are located to the far north on the edge of the Greenspace. The motivation primarily for only providing a 4-star rating for this wonderful magnificent fantastic and beautiful space is that the washrooms are poorly maintained and is to me a violation of all that is good and well in the world as they are so putridly revolting but please do not let that deter you it is otherwise a grande lovely and pride inducing phenomenon and Grand and of Epic quality features for a city to have)there are also grand fountains centrally located in the public Green Space.

This is a wonderful place for leisure people or students. There is a wide common lawn, skatepark and the area for children to play. Further more, there is public ice-skating in winter. It's convenient to borrow pairs of skating shoes if you have a piece of ID card. There are some learning chair for new skater. In addition, there are permanent public washrooms on the other side of the Halifax Common. It might take a 2 minutes walk for parents to cross the common from those facilities just mentioned above. However, it might be a little fun to pass by the large fountain. Overall, it's relaxing to visit Halifax Common. I would prefer to be there...

Open fields, tonnes of base ball diamonds. Dog on leash signs as it's NOT a designated off leash park yet locals ignore it as it's not enforced.
