One of the finest architectural buildings with over one hundred years of history is the Old City Hall in Toronto, Ontario in Canada. As evening approaches the lights of Old City Hall and the tall skyscrapers in the background illuminate the downtown core of Toronto, Ontario.
This City Hall took more than twenty years in the planning and building process and was one that was budgeted at a price far below what the final numbers actually were. The final cost came in at around 2.5 million dollars and it was the largest building that was used for municipal purposes throughout North America.
The outside of the building is in a Romanesque Revival style and the fabulous clock tower stands at approximately three hundred feet. The bells...
... which were put in place much later in the 1900's chimed throughout Toronto with the largest bell weighing about 11,648 pounds.
After Toronto had its fourth City Hall built, the Old City Hall become a courthouse for the Ontario government and tours are available for people to wander through this unique landmark. Beautiful staircases, mosaic floors, murals, lights, windows and chamber rooms are what makes up the stunning architecture and history behind Old City Hall. By the year 1989, Old City Hall was recognized as a national historic site and ten years later the building turned one hundred years old.
