Bird plaque, City Hall

Many wonderful detailed carvings and statue decorate City Hall. At 167 m (548 ft), including statue, it is the world's tallest masonry building: the weight of the building is borne by granite and brick walls up to 22-ft thick, rather than steel. The principal exterior materials are limestone, granite, and marble.
