It was completed two years later in September 1866, which was celebrated by another public holiday and a gala ball.[3] The design by Henry Hunter[1] was somewhat inspired by the Palazzo Farnese in Rome.[4] At the time of construction, it was designed to house the City of Hobart's council chambers, as well as police offices, the municipal court and the State Library of Tasmania.[1] These remained in use for nearly fifty years after the town hall was opened.[5] It, along with Franklin Square, were built on the site of the former government house which had been demolished upon completion of the present government house.[6] By 1925 the state of the halls prominent portico had degenerated to the point it was declared unsafe and major restoration work had to be undertaken.[7] The building's well-known chandeliers were installed in the Town Hall's ballroom by former Lord Mayor Doone Kennedy.[8][9] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|title=Open Doors - Hobart Town Hall|url=http://www.heritage.tas.gov.au/od_town_hall.html|publisher=Heritage Tasmania|accessdate=5 Feb 2014}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=Town Hall|url=http://www.hobartcity.com.au/Council/Bookings/Hobart_Town_Hall|publisher=Hobart City Council|accessdate=5 Feb 2014}} 3. ^{{cite news|last1=Paine|first1=Michelle|title=Hobart Town Hall foundation stone a 150-year blast from the past|url=http://www.themercury.com.au/news/tasmania/hobart-town-hall-foundation-stone-a-150year-blast-from-the-past/story-fnj4f7k1-1226884341933|accessdate=30 July 2014|publisher=The Mercury|date=15 April 2014}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Hobart Town Hall|url=http://www.liveguide.com.au/Venues/5447/Hobart_City_Hall|publisher=Lonely Planet|accessdate=5 Feb 2014}} 5. ^{{cite news|title=Hobart's Town Hall gaol cells|url=http://www.abc.net.au/local/photos/2013/12/10/3906902.htm|newspaper=ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)}} 6. ^{{cite web|last=Somerville|first=J|title=Government Houses in Hobart Town|url=http://eprints.utas.edu.au/13475/1/1944__Somerville_Government_houses.pdf|publisher=Royal Society of Tasmania|accessdate=5 Feb 2014}} 7. ^{{cite news|title=Hobart Town Hall - State of the Portico|url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article29113903|accessdate=5 Feb 2014|newspaper=The Mercury|date=September 22, 1925}} 8. ^{{cite news|first= |last=|title=A great loss to us all as charismatic former Hobart lord mayor Doone Kennedy dies after short illness |url=http://www.themercury.com.au/news/tasmania/a-great-loss-to-us-all-as-charismatic-former-hobart-lord-mayor-doone-kennedy-dies-after-short-illness/story-fnj4f7k1-1227042554193 |work=The Mercury (Hobart) |date=2014-08-31 |accessdate=2014-10-02}} 9. ^{{cite news|first=Anne |last=Mather |title=Hobart’s only female lord mayor Doone Kennedy leaves her mark on city |url=http://www.themercury.com.au/news/tasmania/hobarts-only-female-lord-mayor-doone-kennedy-leaves-her-mark-on-city/story-fnj4f7k1-1227043076614 |work=The Mercury (Hobart) |date=2014-09-01 |accessdate=2014-10-02}} External links{{commons category|Hobart Town Hall}}
