Walk by and move on

If you're at the Eaton Centre or Nathan Phillips Square, you're close enough to this place to check it out. But it's nothing exciting. Walk by, take a photo and move on. Visually appealing building, but not much else of interest.

Open Doors Toronto

We went to Old City Hall during the Open Doors Toronto event. There was no entry fee and it was fun to explore a real courtroom and sit at the judge's chair. The tour guides were very knowledgeable and very friendly. The architecture was awesome!

A Great Building

Really good historical building within the view of Nathan Phillips Square. It seems to set the square off and feel it is a much better than the new one.

Nathan Phillips square is a busy place no matter when you go there! Perfect place for people watching and the scenery is alive!

Love the Toronto sign

I felt like such a tourist, but it was fun to take pictures in front of the Toronto sign. Bring your own ice skates and skate around in front of the sign. The tree was super beautiful in the square behind it. A must see!

Lovely old building beside Nathan Phillips Square

Lovely old building located right next to the new city hall and Nathan Phillips Square. Kind of feels like it doesn't belong being right next to so many tall buildings.
