Description
The Work Projects Administration (WPA) constructed the then-new city hall in Grand Island, Nebraska. The building was dedicated in a ceremony on June 14, 1940. The city hall has since relocated and the stately, Deco-detailed New Deal building now houses a mix of public and private operations.
