Coral Gables City Hall


Listed on the National Register of Historic Places and considered to be an excellent example of the "Mediterranean Revival Style," the Coral Gables City Hall was built in 1927 under the direction of local architect Phineas Paist. Serving as his artistic advisor was Denman Fink, who also painted a mural depicting the four seasons, which is a highlight of the tower interior. Constructed primarily of coral rock, the building is richly ornamented both inside and out

The Coral Gables City Hall continues to be one of the city's finest civic buildings and a landmark that is easily identified when entering the city. It functions as the headquarters of the Mayor of Coral Gables and the City Commission, and it houses many of the twenty departments and offices that make up the local government.

Among the important administrative divisions based in City Hall is the City Manager, who is responsible for a budget of $144 million, as well as fourteen dedicated departments that employee 865 personnel. The City Clerk's office can also be found here, along with the Finance Department, the City Attorney's office, and the City Planning Department.
