HISTORIC PLACES
magazine city hall & jail
The Magazine City Hall-Jail is a historic government building at
the northwest corner of Garland and Priddy Streets in Magazine. It
is a single-story masonry structure, built out of rusticated concrete
blocks and covered by a
gable roof. The gable ends
are framed in wood. The
rear portion of the building,
housing the jail cells, has a
flat roof. It was built in 1934,
with the concrete blocks
formed by a local mason to
resemble ashlar stone. It
is the only local municipal
building built with these
materials, and was used for
its original purposes into the
1980’s.
