The building opened on December 25, 2010, following the merger of Taichung City and Taichung County into a single municipality. This expansion required a new administrative center to serve the enlarged urban area.

Access to the building is direct through Taichung MRT City Hall Station, making it easy to arrive by public transport. The central location near major roads ensures convenient access for visitors.
The building was designed by Swiss architecture firm Weber/Hofer and carries their distinctive design approach. The hollow interior space serves more than just function, creating an unexpected sense of openness within an administrative center.
