It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1][2] HistoryThe building was originally constructed in 1908 as a school in what was then called East Milwaukee:[3] School House No. 4. By 1915, the community had outgrown the building and the new Atwater Elementary School was built to replace it. In 1916, the village bought the building to use as its village hall. It was Shorewood's first and only seat of local government.[4] The original schoolhouse was architecturally rather nondescript - a three-story cross-gabled building clad in Milwaukee cream brick. In 1937, aiming to improve the appearance of this symbol of Shorewood and to stabilize Shorewood's economy during the Great Depression, the village and the New Deal Works Progress Administration funded cosmetic upgrades which made the building more grandly Classical Revival in style. They added the Doric order portico and pilasters around the main entrance. Rusticated stone veneer was added at the ground level. Inside, the original woodwork was replaced with knotty pine. All this was financed with about $14,500 from the WPA and $3,500 from the village.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Shorewood Village Hall|url=https://www.wisconsinhistory.org/Records/NationalRegister/NR1966|publisher=Wisconsin Historical Society|accessdate=2018-11-19}} {{National Register of Historic Places}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://landmarkhunter.com/175125-shorewood-village-hall/|title=Shorewood Village Hall|publisher=Landmark Hunter.com|accessdate=2012-03-03}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.hmdb.org/marker.asp?marker=30249|title=Shorewood Village Hall|publisher=Historical Marker Database.org|accessdate=2012-03-03}} 4. ^1 {{cite web|url={{NRHP url|id=84003739}}|title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory/Nomination: Shorewood Village Hall|publisher=National Park Service|author=Robin Wenger|date=1984-03-19|accessdate=2018-11-19}} With {{NRHP url|id=84003739|photos=y|title=six photos.}} 8 : City and town halls on the National Register of Historic Places in Wisconsin|Village halls in the United States|Schools in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin|Defunct schools in Wisconsin|Works Progress Administration in Wisconsin|Tudor Revival architecture in Wisconsin|National Register of Historic Places in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin|City and town halls in Wisconsin |
