Erected in 1928, this city hall replaced a frame community building at the site. City founder Ed Couch (1879-1944) and Mayor David E. Kirgan (1877-1936) led ceremonies marking the building's completion. Prominent Weslaco architect R. Newell Waters designed it with Spanish Colonial style detailing. Intricate cast stone sculpture adorns the entryway and cupola, and Spanish tiles with colorful geometric patterns decorate the interior stairway.
