Description
“Crescent City Hall is located at 114 W. Monroe in downtown Crescent, OK. This is a city with a population of approximately 1400, about 30 miles northwest of Oklahoma City.
This is a red sandstone building, constructed in 1939, during the heyday of the Work Projects Administration. During the period 1935 to 1943, the WPA employed over 8 million people in the constructing of buildings, bridges and other structures across the United States. Most of these structures still exist today.” (https://www.waymarking.com)
