The public is invited to attend the rededication of City Hall and Open House on Monday, Dec. 9 at 4:30 p.m. We are proud to unveil the first major renovation of City Hall since the building was constructed in 1940. Appetizers, cookies and drinks will be served. We look forward to seeing you!
While keeping the integrity of the original Art Deco architectural style, the project includes updated security, asbestos abatement and the redesign of council chambers with new seating and furniture, light fixtures, carpeting, audio/visual equipment and the addition of a conference room; redesign of the entry and customer service counter in the community and economic development departments; and redesign of the first-floor administration area to allow for better flow, efficiency and customer service.
City Hall was designed in 1938 by Cervin & Stuhr and constructed in 1940 in the Art Deco style of the time under the administration of Mayor Robert Galbraith. The original terrazzo tile floors, green marble walls and rift-sawn oak paneling were refurbished and kept in the renovation.
