Jorge Elorza history
Jorge Elorza company history timeline
In 1832, when Providence became a city most municipal offices including the City Council, Mayor’s Office, and Board of Aldermen were located on the second floor.
Cramped for space, the city in 1853 purchased the 3rd floor from the Masons and this became the new home for the City Council, and just after the conclusion of the Civil War, the city removed the first floor tenants and remodeled the entire building for the exclusive use of city offices.
By 1874, Mayor Thomas Doyle, still unhappy with the location, vetoed the plan, but that October, the City Council over-rode his veto 30 to 8.
City Hall (1886) decorated for the city’s 250th anniversary and draped to mark the passing of Mayor Thomas A. Doyle.
Electricity for lighting was introduced in 1888.
In 1914, major alterations were made in the roof area, additional floor space provided, and the entire refitting of all offices was carried out.
Rebuilt by the WPA, the building was gifted to the Rhode Island School of Design in May 1948 and is currently used for offices.
In 2011, the 375th anniversary of the city’s founding, Providence City Hall retains it prominence as the seat of municipal government and as one of the most outstanding examples of our city’s rich architectural heritage.
