"The Infirmary is one of Halifax's oldest hospitals, established in 1886 and expanded throughout this century to more than 150 beds. It was originally owned by the Sisters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul and operated as a home for aged women. A second and third infirmary joined the first building as the hospital grew in popularity with the public. It was later administered by the government, closed and replaced with a new Infirmary which became the QE II."
Squatters were living in it until a couch was set on fire, and fire officials found children living inside aswell, so they boarded it all up and set up security. City is currently deciding what to build on the location after it's torn down.
Some information (and older photos) regarding the Nursing School the Infirmary used to house.
