The Building - Trinity Apartments
Position your business at one of Halifax’s most prominent downtown intersections. Located at the corner of Cogswell and Brunswick Streets, this ground-floor retail opportunity sits within The Trinity apartments and the Moxy Hotel offering direct access to a built-in customer base of residents, hotel guests, and nearby office users. This highly visible corner unit features strong frontage and excellent pedestrian exposure in a rapidly evolving urban node. With the ongoing Cogswell District redevelopment, the area is transforming into a vibrant, walkable connection between the North End, downtown core, and waterfront, making this an ideal time to establish a presence in this growing neighbourhood. The landlord’s preference is to lease the space as one contiguous unit, allowing for a cohesive retail presence suited to a variety of service and retail uses. Specialty food and beverage would be considered, no fast food. Also, this is an excellent opportunity for boutique retail, wellness concepts, personal services, or businesses focused on convenience and daily needs such as grocery or markets. The property benefits from strong walkability, transit accessibility, and consistent foot traffic driven by surrounding residential density and employment centres. A rare opportunity to secure a high-profile retail location in a rapidly intensifying area of Halifax. Ideal for businesses seeking visibility, accessibility, and long-term growth potential.
