MORE THAN $61,000 RAISED AT<br />
10TH ANNUAL CUA LUNG RUN<br />
On May 7, The Lung Association of<br />
Nova Scotia raised more than $61,000<br />
for lung health in Nova Scotia! More<br />
than 300 walkers, runners, families and<br />
strollers took to the course in downtown<br />
Halifax to help raise funds and awareness<br />
for lung health in Nova Scotia. With an<br />
emphasis on fundraising, this was a free<br />
event where participants were encouraged<br />
to fundraise as much as possible<br />
leading up to the day of the event. The<br />
top fundraiser was CUA President & CEO<br />
Marie Mullally and the top fundraising<br />
team was the CUA Crusaders. The next<br />
Lung Association of Nova Scotia event is<br />
the Runway Run in Fall 2016.<br />
SHUCK SEAFOOD + RAW BAR<br />
OPENED END OF APRIL<br />
At Shuck Seafood + Raw Bar, an RCR<br />
Investment Company, we take great<br />
care to source products that have a positive<br />
impact on our environment. Award<br />
winning Chef Luis Clavel uses a delicate<br />
hand on seafood dishes to highlight the<br />
quality and freshness of the product and<br />
we have an ever changing selection of<br />
raw bar items. Sommeliers Melissa Carey<br />
and Ana Correa designed an eclectic yet<br />
affordable wine list that is complemented<br />
with local craft beer, Nova 7, cider on tap<br />
and signature cocktails. The interior is<br />
simple and understated with board and<br />
batten construction and exhibits a traditional<br />
yet modern East Coast vibe.<br />
QUEEN’S MARQUE: A $200M<br />
INVESTMENT TO BRING CULTURE<br />
TO HALIFAX WATERFRONT<br />
The Queen’s Marque proposal is a joint<br />
venture from Armour Group Ltd.<br />
and the Waterfront Development.<br />
It includes a hotel, office space and a<br />
residential building, combined with art<br />
installations and roughly 23,000 square<br />
metres of plazas, courtyards and other<br />
public space. Two of the buildings are<br />
shaped like ships in port, tapering on the<br />
water side. Waterfront pedestrians can<br />
walk under the buildings as they are supported<br />
in part by dock-like pilings. The<br />
project is scheduled to go before Halifax’s<br />
Design Review Committee Thursday for<br />
a pre-application presentation. A formal<br />
application will follow. The expected<br />
completion date is slated for 2019.<br />
