 Although the North Street station saw a few months of sporadic use for freight and special passenger trains, it was demolished sometime in the 1920s.Today the site of the station is a parking lot opposite the main gate to HMC Dockyard just north of the Angus L. Macdonald Bridge where it crosses Barrington Street.The North Street Station provides an important setting in the Canadian novel "Barometer Rising" by Hugh MacLennan where two major characters are killed in a vivid, although wildly-exaggerated depiction of the station's canopy collapse during the Halifax Explosion.
