Civic address information
Civic Addressing staff manage and assign all civic addresses within the municipality. They also approve all new street names and confirm community boundaries. Civic addressing is responsible for correcting addressing issues that may result in renaming and or renumbering of existing streets under By-law C-300 [PDF] and Administrative Order #29 [PDF].

New addresses and address changes
New civic addresses are assigned and changed daily for new construction and development. We have recently replaced the civic address and street changes update process and weekly PDFs containing address changes are no longer available. Instead, a record of address changes can be found here: Civic Address Changes
Civic Address History
The Municipal Archives maintains information on many historical changes to street names and numbers. This information may be found here: Civic Address History | Source Guides | Halifax
