Clik here to view.A great image from the Nova Scotia Archives exposition on the Halifax Explosion of December 6, 1917. My old hometown of Halifax lost much of its harbour front during the First World War when a cargo ship loaded with explosives collided with another ship. It was the biggest man-made explosion before the first nuclear bomb. Here's a picture of the greater scene. The Army and Navy Brewery was on the east side of the harbour in what was then the separate city of Dartmouth. The brewery had been in operation since 1865 and was the first site of what has become Moosehead Breweries.
