City Hall
About
In local government, a city hall, town hall, civic centre, (in the United Kingdom) a guildhall, or (more rarely) a municipal building, is the chief administrative building of a city[1] town or other municipality. It usually houses the city or town council, its associated departments, and their employees. It also usually functions as the base of the mayor of a city, town, borough, or county. Sometimes, like Birmingham Town Hall in the English Midlands, municipal buildings act as a public social venue and as a building completely separate from the administrative centre; Birmingham uses the Council House for local governance.
