Description
In 1938, the Public Works Administration (PWA) provided funds for the construction of a new city hall in Yuba City CA. The building is single-story, stucco-covered with wood detailing, and a tile roof – a good example of the Mission Revival style popular in California between the wars.
The building was sold after a new city hall was built in c. 2008. The interior has been reworked for professional offices and — It is still called “Old City Hall” and the inscription “City Hall” remains over the front entrance, but evidently a plaque by the door has been removed.
