St. Thomas City Hall
🏛️ A cornerstone of civic and architectural heritage

The St. Thomas City Hall, designed by prominent local architect Neil R. Darrach and constructed between 1898–1899, is a striking example of late Richardsonian Romanesque architecture.

Located in the heart of Downtown St. Thomas, the building remains a working seat of local government and a proud symbol of the city's civic identity. It’s also the site of the annual Tree Lighting Ceremony, a cherished community tradition.

Historically, City Hall also served as home to the city’s Art School and Free Library, both of which moved into the building in 1899. The original library space still exists at the rear of the building, preserving this early chapter of St. Thomas' cultural development.
