Episode 2 - The Public Skating Rink at Nathan Phillips Square
Across the street from the Eaton Centre is Toronto's famous City Hall. Built in 1965 by architect Viljo Revell, its modernist style is one of Toronto's major landmarks. In front of City Hall is Nathan Phillips Square, a large public space containing a peace garden, a sculpture by Henry Moore, a statue of Winston Churchill, and our focus for this video ... the public skating rink. This rink attracts thousands of Torontonians and tourists to lace up their skates and have some fun every winter. Skating is free and there is a rental shop on the grounds.

Episode 1 - The Eaton Centre
Welcome to the first episode of Toronto Landscape TV! In this first episode we are going to take a look at the Eaton Centre which is located in the heart of downtown Toronto across the street from City Hall. We'll focus on the Eaton Centre for two reasons: 1) It's one of Toronto's most popular and most visited sites, and 2) It's the middle of winter in Canada so it's a lot warmer inside!
