Notice:

The National Inventory of Canadian Military Memorials is a public, crowd-sourced registry that helps Canadians learn about memorials in their communities. Inclusion in the Inventory does not imply VAC ownership or authority. Responsibility for the care, management, and any changes to a memorial rests with its owning or governing organization.

Arthur Norman Martin designed the Second World War Memorial on the grand staircase leading from the Lobby of Old City Hall in Sept. 1947. The stained-glass window designed by Robert McCausland is located on the staircase, facing the entranceway. The window features the city’s coat-of-arms, the panels below it illustrating the union of commerce and industry.
