The quest

Fairbanks Street Look off faces the last light on Fairbanks Street, east of centre, Halifax. The quest is standing still until three lights stay on after the sun.

Steps

  1. Arrive at Fairbanks Street Look off twenty minutes before sunset. Stay on public ground — not a bike lane, not a road deck.
  2. Watch until the disk is gone. Name three lights that stay on.
  3. Leave the way you came. Do not climb railings or cut through private docks.

Why this is on the board

Fairbanks Street Look off is one of the spots on Fairbanks Street, east of centre, Halifax where Halifax actually faces the sky. You get the last colour of the day and a few minutes of standing still a patio will not sell you.

Safety. Public ground only. Map data goes stale — if a rail, hour, or closure disagrees, leave. Not a guided tour.
