Marker Text:
Designed by
C.I. Belford and constructed in 1892 by C.W. Schell, this
building originally housed the mayor's office, city council
chambers, city jail, fire department, and the Georgetown Water
Co. Over the years, it also has served as a meeting place for
the Second Baptist Church and as chamber of commerce offices.
The building, which features some Italianate detailing, is one
of few remaining examples of 19th-century city hall-fire
stations in Texas. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark - 1984
