Albro Lake is a neighbourhood in the north end of the community of Dartmouth in Nova Scotia's Halifax Regional Municipality. Albro Lake takes its name from the shallow freshwater lake of the same name. The lake was named after John Albro, who first settled in the area with a group of other residents from Portsmouth, Rhode Island. The neighbourhood includes the Highfield Park and Crystal Heights; both being developments in the Albro Lake neighbourhood which were named by their developers. A newer development Lancaster Ridge is built on the former Department of National Defence housing lands. The streets are named for aircraft used by the Royal Canadian Air Force.
