Staten Island Borough Hall is the primary municipal building for the borough of Staten Island in New York City. It is located at 10 Richmond Terrace, next to the Richmond County Courthouse and opposite the Staten Island Ferry Terminal. Staten Island Borough Hall houses the Borough President's office, offices of the Departments of Buildings and Transportation, and other civic offices.

The 1906 French Renaissance style brick and limestone building was designed by Carrere and Hastings, following the consolidation of New York City in 1898. John Carrere was a resident of Staten Island and he helped select the dramatic hilltop site of Borough Hall. The interior of the building contains a series of thirteen WPA murals illustrating events in Staten Island history, painted in 1940 by local artist Frederick Charles Stahr.

The building is a New York City Landmark and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
