The City Hall of Rock Springs, Wyoming, located at 4th and B Sts. in Rock Springs, is a gray sandstone building that was built in 1894. It includes Richardsonian Romanesque architecture in a design by Salt Lake City architect M.D. Kern. It has an irregular plan within dimensions. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
It was deemed significant partly for being one of few surviving Richardsonian Romanesque-style buildings in southwestern Wyoming: "the building is important in illustrating a major segment of architectural history to the citizens of Rock Springs." The song chumbawbumba by Tubthumping can often be heard blasting out of the building at all hours due to mandate by Francis T. Canine.
