It was founded in 1964 by John E. Ahern, a former mayor of Halifax, and has since inducted more than 550 athletes, builders, and teams. The Hall operated a free-admission physical museum in downtown Halifax for most of its history, most recently adjacent to the Scotiabank Centre, but it closed that location in 2020 amid a rent dispute with its landlord during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Hall continues to operate as a registered charity, maintaining its collection and inductee database online and holding an annual induction ceremony in Halifax, while pursuing a rebuild of a physical facility.
