Civics

American Fork City Hall has served as the seat of city government from 1903 to the present, standing on a site where civic offices have been concentrated since 1861. It reflects an important change in American Fork government after the turn of the century, when civic and ecclesiastical functions that had been combined in multi-use buildings were physically and symbolically separated. It was the first of the town's four municipal buildings used exclusively for governmental purposes. Designed by local architect and builder James H. Pulley and constructed in 1903, the building exhibits Victorian Romanesque Revival style, with round arched openings, a rough stone foundation, and a roof topped by a small central deck that was once adorned with a wooden belfry, removed in 1959.
