It was built in 1847, and is a two-story, stuccoed and granite faced, temple-form building measuring 80 feet by 60 feet. It features a front portico supported by six massive Tuscan order columns, and a gable roof topped by a cupola. The building housed city offices until 1918, and courtrooms until 1960. In 1961, the entire building interior was gutted to house the museum and tomb of General Douglas MacArthur and his wife.[3] The MacArthur Memorial also includes a visitor center building and a research center. Norfolk City Hall was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.[2] See also
