>Did you know that the Halifax Commons used to be a swamp? Or that a babbli=
ng brook used to run through the middle of the South End? Most of the penin=
sula&#39;s wetlands and waterways of are lost or buried, but their legacy r=
emains in the city&#39;s spongy soils and flooded basements. Join Ducks Unl=
imited Canada on this walk to trace the route of Halifax&#39;s Freshwater B=
rook from the Commons down to its original outflow at the bottom of Inglis =
Street, and change the way you see the urban core&#39;s natural landscapes.=
