Toronto Public Library Special Collections
City Hall (1844-1899); interior, Mayor's office & reception room
This is what the interior of the Mayor’s office in Toronto looked like in 1898. In 1958, an international design competition to design New City Hall resulted in Revell’s now-familiar building and public square, now known as Nathan Phillips’ Square and New City Hall. TPL staff put together a website of alternative proposals: tpl.ca/cityhall50
