The Warwick Civic Center Historic District is a historic district encompassing four buildings at the civic heart of Warwick, Rhode Island. The four buildings are Warwick City Hall, the Henry Warner Budlong Memorial Library, the Kentish Artillery Armory, and the Old Fire Station. The first three buildings line the north side of Post Road just east of the junction of US Route 1 and Rhode Island Route 117, where the village of Apponaug was established in the 17th century. All were built between 1890 and 1925; the fire station, which now houses social services agencies, is the oldest.[2]
The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[1]
