Today’s City Hall stands on the ground where the town’s first schoolhouse once stood and then the former Adelphian Academy. The government moved here in 1865 with an expansive building that provided room for a public market on the ground floor and a drill room for the militia. The current block-wide Colonial Revival brick buidling was designed by the firm of Eggers & Higgins in the 1930s.
