description: Architectural style: Modern. Possibly the first true modernist meetinghouse in the Church. Started in 1925, the main hall (the north end) was in use by 1926, but the building was constructed a small portion at a time, and was not completed and dedicated until 1955. The south wing added in 1962. Sold to the city in 1993, used as city hall, but due to structural issues, most services have been moved to the new city hall built in 2008. Currently a government building.
