Punta Gorda's first city hall was a one-story concrete block building erected on this site on land deeded by Virginia Trabue, aged widow of the town's founder, IsaacTrabue, in return for abatement of taxes and life tenure of her nearby home.
The neoclassic design is dominated by a full height porch with a roof supported by classic columns. The building was extensively damaged during Hurricane Ian and is still undergoing repairs a full year after.
