The 2026-2030 Toronto City Council term begins today, November 15, 2026, at City Hall, 100 Queen Street West. The first meeting is scheduled for November 18-19. The downtown landmark houses the Council chamber, the Mayor's office, and offices for 25 councillors.

A building permit valued at $1,850,000 has been issued for the property. The City-owned complex was designed by Viljo Revell with John B. Parkin Associates, engineered by Hannskarl Bandel, and built by Anglin Norcross Ontario at an original cost of about CA$31 million.

Construction began November 7, 1961; the building opened September 13, 1965. The East Tower rises 27 storeys to 327 feet, while the West Tower stands 20 storeys at 261 feet. Amenities include a 27th floor observation deck and a public library branch.

The podium features Canada's largest publicly accessible green roof, added through the Nathan Phillips Square Revitalization. The square's reflecting pool converts to a skating rink in winter.
