Halifax Regional Municipality closes Geary Street encampment site
- Halifax Regional Municipality is closing the Geary Street homeless encampment in Dartmouth and will no longer allow tent sheltering there after June 22, 2025.
- The decision follows low use at Geary Street, which consistently had the fewest occupants among five remaining homeless encampments across Halifax and Dartmouth.
- Three encampment sites will remain in Halifax and one more in Dartmouth, while residents at Geary Street will receive support to relocate to shelters, temporary housing, or other sites.
- By Friday, Halifax personnel noted that the Geary Street location had four tents, while the other four active encampment sites across the municipality contained a total of 47 tents and four trailers, indicating current occupancy levels.
- The closure indicates a municipal effort to consolidate encampments while providing resources to affected residents before the June 22 deadline.
