Whitney Pier (2016 population: 4,612) is an urban neighbourhood in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada. Prior to the 20th century, this area was known as “Eastmount” or “South Sydney Harbour,” and had long been a fishing and farming district.[1] It is a triangle-shaped area North of the Muggah Creek estuary running along the Eastern shore of Sydney Harbour.
Prior to Municipal amalgamation in 1995 which saw the formation of CBRM, Whitney Pier was a neighbourhood on the Northern boundary of the former City of Sydney.
Whitney Pier derives its name from Henry Melville Whitney, an American Industrialist who established the Dominion Coal Company (DOMCO) in the early 1890s and its subsidiary the Dominion Iron & Steel Company Ltd. (DISCO) in 1899. Sydney Steel Corporation (The Steel Plant) was completed in 1901.
The Development of Whitney Pier was designated as a National Historic Event in 2014.[2]
