History

In addition to the offices of the city government, when the building opened in 1892, it also housed the police department, the fire department, the jail and the city library. A public auditorium is located on in the building. It has hosted traveling theater troupes, class plays, graduation ceremonies and served as a movie theater until 1917 when a separate theater opened in the city.[3]
