Grand Forks City Hall is a building in Grand Forks, North Dakota that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
It was built in 1911.[3]
It was designed by Grand Forks architect John W. Ross and was built by Northern Construction & Engineering.[1][3]
In a 1981 survey of Downtown Grand Forks historical resources, it was stated this building "is pure Beaux Arts. Rather small in scale and only two storys over a raised basement, the City Hall is faced with ashlar and was similar in mass, style, and materials to the recently razed Carnegie Library which was located nearby."[2]: 5
The listing was for an area of less than one acre with just the one building.[1]
