Tucson City Hall

Tucson City Hall was master planned and designed by the firm of Friedman and Jobusch with construction beginning in 1960. The original building was the first of a four stage plan for a new government complex and was constructed by Ashton Co, Inc.  The single-story phase was dedicated by Mayor Don Hummel in December 1961. A 1965 city bond election funded the completion of the tower (1966). The designed proposed by Friedman and Jobusch was called “ southwestern flavor, utilizing local buildings materials.” (Written by Demion Clinco, Tucson Historic Preservation Foundation)
