Old City Hall (Davenport, Iowa)
The Old City Hall is located just north of downtown along a commercial corridor in Davenport, Iowa, United States. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.〔
==History==
Designed by Davenport architect Willett Carroll, the building was built in 1857 as an engine house for a fire company. That year the city council rejected sites along Washington Square and Court House Square for a new city hall, so in early 1858 the engine house's hall became the council chambers and other municipal offices were moved into other sections of the building. It continued to be used as a combination city hall and fire station until Hose Station No. 1 was built in 1877. A significant number of local industrialists and professionals served as mayor when this building housed city hall. They include George B. Sargent (1857), Ebeneezer Cook (1858-59), Hiram Price (1859), George H. French (1861-1862), John L. Davies (1865-1866), Michael Donahue (1867-1868), John C. Bills (1871, 1882, 1892), Ernest Claussen (1883-1889), and C. A. Ficke (1890-1891).〔 The building was converted around 1910 into an apartment building after the current city hall (1895) was built, and the structure was dramatically altered to its present appearance. When it was built it exhibited elements of the Italian Renaissance Revival style, and it included a tower on top of the east elevation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Old City Hall )〕 While the structure is the oldest building in Davenport that is associated with municipal
government and politics,〔 it remains an apartment building.
