York's City Auditorium was one of three major W.P.A. projects in the city. Constructed of poured reinforced concrete in a mildly "ART DECO" style, the building should last for centuries.

This pencil drawing was published in a local newspaper in 1955; a 2007 photo is paired with a WWII vintage postcard view in here.

Year of construction: 1940
