Queens Borough Hall, Municipal administration building in Kew Gardens, United States
Queens Borough Hall spans 580 feet along Queens Boulevard, featuring red brick construction and four stories of governmental offices and court spaces.
The building opened on December 4, 1940, with Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia presiding over the ceremony after nine months of construction at a cost of $1,648,000.
The facility represents Queens County's transformation from rural villages to an urban center, serving as the primary location for borough administration and civic engagement.
Located at 120-55 Queens Boulevard, the building contains the Office of the Queens Borough President and operates under the Department of Citywide Administrative Services.
