The Halifax Regional Municipality has revoked the demolition permit for a construction project at the corner of Oxford and North streets.
The decision comes after stop-work orders were issued in December by both HRM and the province when Mosaik Properties began tearing down the residential building at 6399 North St.
The demolition got underway before a final tenant had moved out and while a hearing at the Residential Tenancies Board was pending. The province s stop-work order has since been lifted, but Halifax s order is still in effect. The tenant is no longer living in the building.
