The Larimore City Hall is a building in Larimore, North Dakota that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990. It "may be described as a two-and-a-half story rectangular structure of red-painted buff brick which rises to a hipped roof."[2]:2
It was built in 1890, and five years later was also dubbed the Larimore Opera House, as it had by then housed multiple concerts and stage events.[2]
It was designed by Grand Forks architect John W. Ross, the first licensed architect in the area.[2] It was built by M.J. Moran, contractor.[2] It was the first brick structure in the community and is the oldest surviving civic building.[2] It includes Colonial Revival, Georgian Revival and other architecture.[1]
