Living New Deal

"The new building is two stories in height with hollow-tile walls and partitions. Its stucco exterior, the arcaded entrance, and the tile roof give it the Spanish character which is native to the region.

The first floor contains offices, a meeting room for State officials, garage for two fire trucks, firemen's quarters, and a hall for the use of civic organizations. The second floor is given up to a ballroom with a band platform and concession spaces.

The project was completed in March 1936 for a total cost of $42,952."
