Midway Town Hall was designed by architect Claude Shepherd Ashworth and built by Fredrick O. Hauter. Originally known as the Midway Recreation Center, it was constructed with Works Progress Administration funds and local labor in 1941. Built of local limestone known as "pot rock," the structure shows characteristics reminiscent of the Arts and Crafts and Tudor Revival styles, including rustic wooden lintels, brackets on the gable ends, a steeply pitched roof, half-timbering, and scribed wooden pendants. On the site of Old Fort Midway in the town's civic and recreation center, it helps document the impact of New Deal programs in Utah, one of the states most severely affected by the Great Depression. It has been in continuous use as a gathering place for the town's social, recreational, and governmental activities and remains the focal point of the community, serving as home for local chapters of national and state organizations, the post office, and civic offices.
