The coat of arms above is from the Yorkville Town Hall built on Yonge Street in 1859. It contains symbols representing the occupations of the first councillors: John Severn, brewer; Thomas Atkinson, brickmaker; Reeve James Dobson, carpenter; James Wallis, blacksmith; and Peter Hutty, butcher. Established in the 1830s by William Jarvis and Joseph Bloor, Yorkville was incorporated as a village in 1853 and annexed to Toronto in 1883. This fire hall was begun in 1876 and restored in 1974.
