The TD sign, now such a visible part of the city's night sky, first appeared in 2000. That was when TD Bank purchased Canada Trust and took over their building at 161 Bay Street, replacing their logo with the TD shield. At that time, the four sides of the sign were made up of a collection of 325 green and white neon tubes. In 2020, a major renovation was begun to convert the sign to LEDs which made the sign both brighter and more energy efficient. It also allows the display to be programmed to show things other than the logo. Like this rabbit, which commemorates the start of the Year of the Rabbit in the Chinese calendar.
