The square on which Toronto’s new $25,000,000 City Hall is being built has been re-named Nathan Phillips Square in honor of Toronto’s Jewish Mayor.
Mr. Phillips, who has been mayor since 1955, was proposed for the honor by a motion in city council in recognition of his efforts on behalf of the new city hall. The area previously was known as Albert Square.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
