City Hall 

City Hall stretches along the southwest corner of Fifth Avenue between Eighth and Ninth Streets and houses most of our city offices. The Huntington Fire Department and City Police Department are located just a few blocks away. The building, designed by Verus T. Ritter, dates back to the early part of 1915. The exact date is not known but the contract was signed on September 27, 1913, with an extension granted the following year.

City Hall is home of the mayors' office and the offices of the city councilmen. Council meetings are held on the second and fourth Mondays of each month at 7:30 p.m. in City Council Chambers. Our young citizens are encourgaged to attend any of the meetings with their parent(s)/ Guardian(s) to learn more about our city government or perhaps voice an opinion.

Being centrally located, it makes it easy to perform errands or day to day business with the surrounding offices, businesses, stores, and restaurants. Professional offices (doctors, lawyers, accountants, etc.), businesses (from "A"-auto dealerships to "Y"-youth organizations), and restaurants (from fast food establishments to fine dining and international cuisines) can be found with-in easy walking distance of the "Heart" of Huntington.
