The Windsor City Hall is currently home to the Windsor City Council and office of the mayor in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. The Windsor City Hall consists of 2 buildings both situated in the Windsor's City Hall Square. The main city hall building is located on 350 City Hall Square West, where it was formerly Central Public School prior to construction in 1955.

History

The site of the hall was previously Central Public School, thereafter the city purchased the property in 1904 and served it as the city hall. On 1955, construction began and the building was completed on 1956. In 2005, an additional building part of the Windsor City Hall campus was opened and was located across the street from the city hall on 400 City Hall Square. The second building today now serves various public services.

Future

Plans to demolish the building after concerns of aging and structural issues started being brought up in 1990s. A new building was a topic during the 2014 budget meeting in 2013. A council vote was in favour of a new building which was passed 10 to 1. In October 2014, the Windsor City Council approved plans to demolish the original city hall and build a newer building. Construction of the new building is scheduled to start late 2015 and be completed in 2017-2018. The project is estimated to cost $23 million.
