Pocatello City Hall Relocation to Historic Federal Building

planned

The city of Pocatello is conducting a feasibility study to determine if the historic Federal Building in downtown Pocatello can be renovated to serve as the new city hall. The study will assess structural, financial, and operational feasibility, including historic preservation, ADA improvements, building code upgrades, space needs, parking, and construction costs. The project aims to move approximately 80 city employees to the new location and potentially allow the nearby police department to expand into the vacated space. The building, constructed in 1916, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and requires significant upgrades to meet current standards.
