City Hall


Our City Hall was designed by local architect, Samuel Hannaford, who also designed our Music Hall, in a very popular style, Romanesque, as interpreted by H. H. Richardson, using massive stones, rounded arches and a tower.

Today, it's numerous stain glass windows, depicting events in our city's history, attract the most attention. In addition to the windows, the building has decorative ironwork and carved stone, as well as two ceiling paintings.
