It's 2028 and the hottest social event of the year in Toronto is the official, partial re-opening of Old City Hall. Some of the most talented, intriguing people in the world who also happen to be Torontonians, past or present, will be there! They include: Abel, Anne, Ann-Marie, Aubrey, Catherine, David, Howie, Isabel, Jim, Joni, Keanu, the Levys, Lily, Margaret, Matty, Maureen, Mike, Rachel, Samantha, Sarah, Shawn, Simu and Yannick to name a few.
A quartet formed of members of Tafelmusik will perform chamber music adaptations of Toronto songwriters' works -- including Shawn Mendes' "In the Blood" which was turned into chamber music for the "Bridgerton" series.
Might Drake or the Weeknd perform?
Might the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge grace the event with their presence?
Long before this champagne-priced event, how many more affordable events can be organized in the grand entry hall, former City Council chamber or spacious bar/restaurant?
With the huge numbers of people moving into downtown condos plus the central location of OCH, the City's Museums and Heritage Services section could turn the building into a hive of pleasant activity.
PLEASE NOTE: The goblet with the raccoon logo is from brew-pub Bandit Brewery https://www.banditbrewery.ca/. It is one of the Toronto-centric gifts I take to friends in different cities.
