Yonge-Dundas Square
Sankofa Square (former name: Yonge-Dundas Square) is a bustling outdoor public space & live-event venue hosting free concerts, movies & community events. The square has fountains and sitting areas and is surrounded by buildings with colourful electronic billboards.

There is bronze map of "Yonge Street" set in the sidewalk across the street from Sankofa Square (former name: Yonge-Dundas Square) to promote the urban myth that Yonge Street is the longest street in the world.
