Marlborough Woods features two named parks and six transit stops within its mapped boundary. Sources:

## Amenity Inventory

Marlborough Woods contains two mapped parks, specifically Marlborough Woods Park and Oakland Road Park. These green spaces form part of the sixteen total amenity points attributed to the neighbourhood in the supplied dataset. The presence of these parks establishes a baseline for local recreational infrastructure within the defined boundary.

The remaining fourteen amenity points consist of six transit stops and eight recreation facilities. While the recreation entries lack specific proper names in the source data, their category classification confirms their function. This inventory provides a factual record of available public assets without implying quality or usage patterns. Sources:

## Transit Access Points

Six transit stop points are mapped within Marlborough Woods, located along Inglis Street and Purcells Cove Road. Specific locations include stops after and before Bellevue Avenue on Inglis Street. These points indicate where public transportation services intersect with the neighbourhood's street network according to the OpenStreetMap data.

The distribution of these stops across two major road segments suggests multiple access points for residents. However, the mapped presence does not establish route frequency, service reliability, or commute efficiency. The data confirms location only, leaving operational characteristics outside the scope of this analysis. Sources:

## The strongest counter-case

The local evidence consists solely of mapped amenity points without market statistics or forecasts.

## City market context

From the Halifax market article, 22 September 2026:

Halifax's Months of Inventory climbed from 4.9 in January 2026 to 8 in August, marking a clear shift into buyer-favourable conditions. Sellers now face longer listing times and greater price negotiation pressure, while buyers gain leverage in a market with more options. Halifax's housing market shifted from balanced conditions in early 2026 to a strong buyer's market by August, with Months of Inventory rising from 4.9 to 8. This shift reflects slowing sales against growing inventory, giving buyers more negotiating power while sellers face longer listing times.
