Wynand van Niekerk as Downtown Sketcher captures city corners through vibrant sketches using fine liners, acrylic, and alcohol-based markers, bringing urban landscapes to life in Canada. His work inspires others to see beauty in their surroundings.

The sketch depicts the Midtown Tavern & Grill in Halifax. It is
a beloved family-style pub and eatery and is located across from the Prince George Hotel in Halifax.

The history of the Midtown Tavern in Halifax dates back to 1949, and the old building itself dates from the 1860s. The original Midtown Tavern was torn down to make way for new development, and the tavern moved to its current location at 1744 Grafton Street. In 2009, the Midtown Tavern joined forces with a nightclub and watering hole, Boomer's Lounge, and became the Midtown Tavern & Grill. The tavern is known for its role as a family-style pub and eatery, offering a welcoming atmosphere and a mix of live music, DJ, and dancefloor events. It is a beloved establishment that has been part of Halifax's social fabric for many years, catering to a diverse clientele and contributing to the city's social life. 

The Tavern is a popular meeting place due to its proximity to the Scotia Bank Centre. It's proximity makes it a favored spot for people to gather before or after events at the Centre that is right in the heart of downtown Halifax.
