STRUM ISLAND – A Safe HavenThe story: An American real estate developer and engineer stood on ground zero in New York City as the Twin Towers crumbled into toxic ash. America’s safety was challenged.
He drove his car to Nova Scotia where he had spent many childhood summers with his grandfather. That day he bought Strum Island and created a 10-acre sanctuary, close to Halifax, but far enough to be off the radar of a big city.
In a world where nothing seems secure anymore, Strum Island is a welcome refuge of sanity and safety.
