About Old City Hall Historic

District

Old City Hall Historic District, located between Pacific Avenue and Broadway, is a historic and civic Tacoma neighborhood with Romanesque brickwork and a waterfront-adjacent downtown pulse. The district’s character concentrates around the Old City Hall building at 625 S Commerce St, where courthouse-era architecture meets a steady rhythm of galleries, coffee counters, and lunch spots. Landmark Saloon and The Harmon Pub & Brewery act as long-running social anchors, while the Pantages Theater adds marquee-night energy nearby. Side streets layer in restored warehouses, stone details, and compact blocks made for walking. The Museum of Glass and Thea Foss Waterway frame the area with industrial history and contemporary culture. Light rail stops and downtown sidewalks keep the pace urban and connected.
