Neighbourhood
At the heart of everything that matters
Living at Agency Art Lofts means living in the core—Halifax’s dense, walkable, and endlessly interesting downtown. The city’s urban experience is compact but complete: gritty, lively, and easy to love. From here, it’s all within reach—cafés, concerts, culture, and connection. Whether you’re walking home from work or wandering out on a whim, the city unfolds around you in full colour.
The sea at your doorstep
Just steps from your door is Halifax’s iconic waterfront boardwalk—a five-kilometre stretch of ocean-facing public space where the city comes to life. Street performers, food vendors, ships in the harbour, and the buzz of people make it feel like a year-round festival. It’s part boardwalk, part front porch, and one of the city’s most defining features. And it’s basically your backyard.
Take a deep breath and smell the roses
In minutes, you can swap streets for trees. Halifax’s beloved Public Gardens, the Halifax Common, and Point Pleasant Park are all nearby—perfect for a morning run, a midday escape, or a weekend wander. This is a city that balances energy with open space, where living downtown doesn’t mean giving up green. It’s an urban life that still leaves room to breathe.
Nestled In Between The City's Best Green Spaces
Move to the beat of your own drum
Halifax was made for getting around. Downtown is dense and walkable, the bike lanes are growing fast, and transit options are everywhere. With buses, ferries, and streets made for strolling, you might just ditch your car altogether. But when you need one, Communauto car share vehicles are all around—ready to take you out of town at a moment’s notice. However you travel, you’re connected to it all from here.
Surrounded by culture and community
This is where Halifax comes to eat, drink, and celebrate. From live music and indie theatre to rooftop bars and late-night ramen, the city’s cultural core is full of personality. You’ll find everything from dive bars to jazz lounges, bookshops to vintage boutiques—each one close, each one with a story. It’s a neighbourhood built for curiosity.
It’s urban life, reimagined
Agency Art Lofts isn’t just located downtown—it’s part of the downtown story. Built into the bones of a mid-century office building, it’s surrounded by history but made for what’s next. With the waterfront as your hangout, green space as your getaway, and the best of the city all around, this is downtown living with a whole new energy. Can’t you feel it?
