The CBC Radio Building is a landmark Streamline Moderne-style office building located in the Halifax Regional Municipality, Nova Scotia overlooking the Halifax Citadel and Halifax Public Gardens which served as the home of CBC Radio in Nova Scotia from 1944 to 2014. ==Origins== The building was made for Fred C. Manning, a Nova Scotia businessman who built a chain of gas stations and car dealerships during the 1920s and 30s known as the United Service Corporation. Completed in 1933, it originally served as a car dealership, gas station and Manning's head office. Sydney Perry Dumaresq,〔J. Philip Dumaresq, ("The Story of the CBC Radio Building at Sackville and Bell Road, Halifax" ), ''The Griffin'', Vol. 35, No. 3 September 2010〕 one of a family of famous Nova Scotian architects,〔Marjorie Simmins, ("The Family that Built this City" ), Halifaxmag.com April 2011〕 designed the building in the Streamline Moderne-style, a 1930s variation of Art Deco known for its elegant curves and often associated with transportation facilities of the era. In order to maximize the use of the corner property, parking was provided on the roof of the building, with access via a specially built elevator.〔
