Town Hall

The Town of Davie held a Town Hall Closeout Ceremony to mark the end of an era and the beginning of a new era. The Town Hall is being demolished to make way for a new, modern building at the same site. A Temporary Town Hall (TTH) has bee set up at Pine Island Park located at 3801 S. Pine Island Road.

The ceremony was opened by Davie Mayor Judy Paul, “This is a day of celebration, but also a day of sadness as we say goodbye to our beloved town hall. This building has served as Davie Town Hall since 1961.”

In 2019, the Davie Town Council approved the construction of a new Town Hall at the existing location, 6591 Orange Drive. The facility has significant issues with space, plumbing, electrical, air conditioning, façade deterioration, pest infestation, building security, lack of Americans with Disability Act (ADA) accommodations, and inadequate public meeting space.

Mayor Paul was joined by a group of elected officials, public servants, and citizens, past and present to pay their respects and share memories. The town commission also shared a video featuring the past and future town hall.

The new Town Hall will be adjacent to another redevelopment project, Frontier Square, planned at the northwest corner of Orange Drive and Davie Road. Frontier Square is a 150,000 square foot entertainment venue with a parking garage. Davie Town Hall and the Bergeron Rodeo Grounds are landmarks in the Downtown Davie area and as such, the Town Council saw this as an important part of our investment in the ongoing redevelopment.

The new Town Hall will preserve the existing open space and reflect the western theme unique to the town’s heritage. There will be overhangs, covered front porches, metal roofing, a clock, and a wind vane.

The old town hall was originally built by the Davie Chamber of Commerce in the 1940s and was used for all manner of civic uses including boy scout meetings, debates, events, and its current function.
