Fun Facts

In the 1950s, there were plans to demolish the historic building, but it was saved by public outcry and a successful preservation campaign.

The building is designed in the Italian Renaissance style, featuring a distinctive red terra-cotta exterior and a grand central staircase.

The building houses a bronze statue of Sacagawea, commemorating her role in guiding the Lewis and Clark Expedition.

Inside, you'll find beautiful murals and stained glass windows that reflect the city's cultural and historical heritage.

It hosts numerous public meetings and events, serving as a central point for community involvement and local governance.

The clock tower, added in 1933, is a prominent feature that enhances the building's historic charm.
