The Cogswell Interchange is a multi-level highway interchange in downtown Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. It was built as the first stage of a greater scheme for an elevated freeway, called Harbour Drive, which would have run south through downtown and necessitated demolition of much of the downtown building stock. The plan was halted in the face of significant public opposition, but the Cogswell Interchange remains a visible reminder, occupying a large amount of prime land and posing a barrier to pedestrian movement.

Platform tennis (often called "paddle", despite other sports with similar names) is derived from tennis, developed in 1928 in Scarsdale, New York by James Cogswell and Fessenden Blanchard. Cogswell and Fessenden had been seeking to develop a sport that could be played outdoors during the winter. The original platform they constructed was long and wide, dimensions that were dictated by the Cogswell property's steep slope and constrained by the presence of a large rock. The court was too small for volleyball and the overhanging foliage precluded badminton,
