In 1992, as part of Toronto’s Postmodern Metro Hall project, David Pecaut Square was constructed. Metro Square was renamed in April 2011 in memory of the late civic leader David Pecaut by a resolution of the Toronto City Council. The Eternal Flame of Hope, which burns in The Square as a reminder that society must be inclusive and is motivated by the tenacity of disabled people, is featured there. A public area with distinctive views of Metro Hall, Roy Thomson Hall, and the Royal Alexandra Theatre is created by a lawn with trees lining its outside margins. Free music performances, movie showings, and other events occur there.
