Old City Hall

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.

The Old City Hall - this Romanesque Revival style structure served as Toronto’s old city hall from 1899 to 1966. It is the work of E.J. Lennox, an architect with a reputation for mischief. Apparently, because Lennox was too slow, by the time the City Hall completed its construction, Romanesque Revival architecture was already out of style and it was three times over budget, leading to an irreconcilable split between Lennox and the city authorities. The Romanesque style is known for its intricate and detailed ornamental sculptures. Lennox was an extremely demanding architect, as well as a very skilled sculptor. All He was never satisfied with the carvings done by the laborers and asked for everything to be redone. I guess this is one reason it took such a long time. The Romanesque style often adorned the pillars of the main entrances carved with grimacing faces to scare off bad spirits. When creating these Lennox had a big laugh; he carved the faces of the hated politicians who gave him a hard time as little demons making demonic faces. His very own bust was carved right in the middle as a solemn, severe overseer, glaring down onto the civil servants going daily to and from work through the entrance. From the old city hall to the new one, it is only a few minutes on foot.
