 City Hall was originally located on the second floor of a downtown liquor store. The current City Hall, at the corner of Markham and Broadway, was designed by local architect [[Charles L. Thompson]] in the Classic Revival style and opened on April 15, 1908. When it opened it sported a copper dome and large windows. The dome was removed in 1956 after locals voted to remove the structure rather than repair it. In the 1960s several windows were bricked-in to reduce the cost of air conditioning.
-Many of the original city offices have since moved into separate facilities, including the [[Arkansas Museum of Natural History and Antiquities]] and the [[Little Rock Police Department]].
