    City Hall & Nathan Phillips Square: City Hall
    One of Toronto's distinctive characteristics is its modern architecture. Whether you like it or not, you have to admit that it's different. A perfect example of this is the City Hall. Built in 1965, it was designed by the Finnish architect Viljo Revell. The Old City Hall, built in 1899, is now used for routine civil court proceedings. It's a fine example of Romanesque architecture, designed by E.J. Lennox (who also designed Casa Loma). Surrounding both City Halls is Nathan Phillips Square, one of the city's main gathering spots.
