Toronto City Hall Square

Toronto City Hall Square, as built, has a certain brutal grandeur.

But in the years since building the square has been "prettied-up". Trees, gardens and a bandstand -- all manner of things the net effect of which is to make the building look like a 1950's modernist building dropped from the sky into a 1930's city park.

There is a proposal to tear down City Hall. I say not -- it's a significant building -- but take down the un needed stuff that hides it.
