Résumé:
The 1958 competition for Toronto's new city hall and public square was the largest competition of its era, attracting more architects than even the 1956 Sydney Opera House competition. While the outcome is well known - Finnish architect Viljo Revell's complex opened to public acclaim in 1965 - what is lesser known to specialists and to the general public is the amazing variety of projects that were submitted from around the world. Weaving a tale that is equal parts civic, cultural, and architectural history, the authors explore the impact of the competition on the design of public institutions and urban spaces in Canada, and reflect on the value of architectural competitions as modern architecture developed in the mid-20th century.
