I must commend my EhMac colleagues for making a most persuasive case. Put me down as actively hoping I'm wrong!!

I've attached a couple of photos showing the work done from Monday to Tuesday of this week. The space will be more than 7000 sq. ft. and there is additional room to work with outside of the mall. A restaurant (Pizza Delight) closed this week adding more rentable space.

There is only one business the HSC would want to attract with this type of renovation and lease cutting. Welcome to Halifax Apple!

Nice shots! Looks like they are dismantling the dome part of the entrance?

Where did you take these from?

The overpass to Sears from the Mumford Parkade.

We have only had two storms so far this winter, and the rest of the time there's been rain to wash away all the snow. Mostly it's just been windy. Very windy.

We'll see what February brings, but it's been a fantastic winter thus far! Lots of high-temp records broken.

See, this is making more sense. When I first looked at the location, I said it was not "showy" or visible enough for Apple. But it they create a new entrance/facade and get a big Apple logo there, it would make sense! Haha.

Here's hoping for a cool glass stairwell!

While on occasion I would agree with this statement, "The Gap" already has a prime location next to the food court.

I wish my inside sources knew more. Or at least told me more.... So much for inside souces...
