Luton Town Hall, George Street, Luton
The town hall building was designed to create a powerful and highly visible landmark in the centre of the town. It was built in Neo-classical style, with Art Deco detailing in 1935-36. The design was selected by competition, for which there were 86 entries. The earlier town hall of 1847 was burnt down as a result of the Peace Riots' of July 19th, 1919.
