1120 F Street

Built in 1935. A WPA project, the massive Eureka Municipal Auditorium is an example of the Art Deco Style. Fluted piers separate the entrance bays between the heavy fluted corners. This section is embellished with abstracted; two dimensional ornaments resembles organic motifs. The main body of the building is similarly detailed, and layered horizontal bands occur at the parapet level behind the entrance. On the side elevation, four recessed bays with upper-floor windows are flanked by pavilions with thin windows and Art Deco detailing.
