The historic Howard Lake City Hall is a multipurpose government building in Howard Lake, Minnesota, United States, built in 1904. It originally housed the city's government offices, post office, public library, fire department, and public meeting hall.[2] In the 1930s the city began operating a municipal liquor store in the building, which remains the building's primary use today as most other functions have moved to newer facilities.[3] The Howard Lake City Hall was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979 for having local significance in the themes of architecture and politics/government.[4] It was nominated as an example of early-20th-century small-town government architecture, and as Howard Lake's most prominent building.[2]
