Little Rock City Hall, the seat of municipal government of the city of Little Rock, Arkansas, is located at 500 West Markham Street, in the city's downtown. It is a Renaissance Revival structure, designed by noted Arkansas architect Charles L. Thompson and built in 1907. Its main facade has a projecting Roman portico, supported by fluted Ionic columns, with flanking sections that have Roman-style round-arch openings. The building housed most of the city's departments until the 1950s.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[1]
