| Artistic rendering on the new sign on University Avenue. |
You may have noticed a flurry of activity on the boulevard at the intersection of Robie Street and University Avenue. Dalhousie is installing a new sign—a key identifier of the university in this prominent area of campus.
This new eye-catching sign will resemble the clock tower on the Henry Hicks Academic and Administration Building. It’s made from ashlar stone, limestone and copper, which is meant to represent the three different building styles on campus. It will be adorned with anodized aluminum lettering and will be illuminated with ground lighting.
The sign was designed by Volick, Mckee, Petersmann and Associates, with BMR Engineering as consultants. The construction work is by Coastal Restoration and Masonry. This project is being carried out with co-operation the Halifax Regional Municipality.
It’s expected the project will be completed this month.
