The developer of the massive Nova Centre project in downtown Halifax has filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia against the Heritage Trust of Nova Scotia and its board of directors.
Argyle Developments Inc. said the Heritage Trust is trying to stall construction of the Nova Centre and believes the Heritage Trust is acting outside of its mandate as a heritage preservation society.
“The Heritage Trust’s persistent efforts to quash downtown development — including Nova Centre — is beyond their expressed mandate, adds costs, and has a negative impact on the progress of our city and province,” said Joe Ramia, the CEO of Argyle Developments, in a news release.
