The Old Anchorage City Hall, also known as Historic City Hall, is located at 524 West Fourth Avenue in Anchorage, Alaska. It is a two-story cast concrete building, designed by E. Ellsworth Sedille and built in 1936 with funding from the Public Works Administration. It housed the city administration of the city until 1979, when most of the integrated city-borough administration was moved to the Hill Building at 632 West 6th Avenue.{{cite web|url={{NRHP url|id=80000745}}|title=NRHP nomination for Anchorage City Hall|publisher=National Park Service|accessdate=2014-11-25}}
The old city hall started the second generation of municipal architecture in the city, moving from frame construction to reinforced concrete. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
The building now houses the sales staff for Visit Anchorage, formerly the Anchorage Convention & Visitors Bureau.{{cite web|title=Convention Sales Staff(Visit Anchorage, formerly: ACVB)|url=http://anchorageconventioncenters.com/contact-us/acvb-staff-directory/|publisher=SMG Alaska / Visit Anchorage.|accessdate=7 February 2016}}
