The Peoria City Hall was designed and built by Reeves and Ballie (architects) in 1899, and it is still in use as the city hall at 419 Fulton Street. There were two previous city halls before this one was built. In 1899 it was on the corner of Fulton and Madison, but the city's layout changed over the years and Madison no longer crosses Fulton. The building retains the original Victorian tower. Of course the interior has been remodeled over the years, but through careful restoration, the exterior has retained its original appearance.
It is open during normal business hours on weekdays. Parking is on street in metered spaces.
