The Old City Hall, the Roman Revival building, was the office building of the Toronto Municipal Council from 1899 to 1966. It was the work of the willful and naughty architect E.J. Lennox. It is said that because Lennox is too slow, when the city hall is completed, the Roman style is no longer popular, and the budget is more than three times, which has inspired the irreconcilable conflict between Lennox and municipal officials. Roman classical style is famous for its complex and detailed decorative sculptures. Lennox is an extremely demanding architect and a skilled hand sculptor. He is not satisfied with the work of the workers, and he is completely reinstated. I think this is one of the reasons for the long time. Roman classical style often engraves a weird face on the entrance gate of the gate to scare away the "dirty things". Lennox made a big joke when he started, and he hated him. The politicians were all carved into little ghosts, and they all made faces, and his own avatar, seriously and seriously carved into the middle, glared at the civil servants who commuted from this door every day. From the old town hall to the new town hall, in just a few minutes, you can see the Torontoopia shop on the road, this is the best place to buy the "hand letter", which has various representations of Toronto Cute little things. Now, Chinese immigrants are the backbone of Toronto. In just one city in Toronto, there are six Chinese cities, which have become a bright color in Toronto.
