Located at 520 Market Street, Camden City Hall is an important civic landmark built in a restrained Art Deco style. As the tallest building in the city, this government hub is built of light gray granite and has a six-story high base and a 371-foot tall, 18 floor slender tower at the center of the building. Construction of City Hall Camden began in 1929 and was completed in 1931. It was designed by Camden architects Alfred Green (1895 to 1978) and Byron Edwards (1895 to 1968). Their firm, Green and Edwards, began in 1924 and built other notable New Jersey and Camden buildings including Chalcar Apartments at 218-222 Cooper Street (within the Cooper Street Historic District) and the Cape May County Courthouse and Jail, among others.  

The Trust grant will help fund the purchase and installation of an interactive, heritage tourism kiosk in Camden City Hall; the development of the software and content for the kiosk; and the development of a website that mirrors the content of the kiosk.
