In 1923, voters approved a bond issue for Riverside to construct its first municipally-owned city hall. Constructed in the Spanish Colonial revival style, this structure served the city government until 1975. Sold by the city in 1976, the building was used for commercial purposes until 1985 when it was purchased and restored by the partnership of Hlubik, Marr and Coil, local citizens.
Erected by City of Riverside. (Marker Number 28.)
