Newark City Hall was built in 1902 and was added to the National Register for Historic Places on February 17, 1978. Newark City Hall was designed by John H. and Wilson C. Ely Architects with the firm of Mowbray and Uffinger and completed in 1906. The building is a five-story Beaux Arts style building with a golden dome; built at a cost of $2.6 million. The interior of the building features massive interior carved marble and fine paneling, a grand central staircase, stained-glass skylights, and decorative plaster and wrought-iron works. The central dome inside is made of copper and is flanked by atria with glass ceilings. The three-door main entrance is approached by a twenty-step stairway. Newark City Hall is one of New Jersey's best examples of the Beaux Arts influence in American public architecture. When it was completed, it represented the culmination of the political, social, and economic aspirations of the nation's third oldest major city as it entered its 240^th year.

The 2022 Trust grant will help fund the restoration of the Tiffany glass laylights and surrounding wall and ceiling repairs.
