The first public (government) building in Tyrone was erected in 1857 and later on a brick two-story building on 10th Street.

In 1916 the Tyrone Borough built its Municipal Building at 1100 Logan Avenue. The builder was J. Van Hildebrand and the cost was $24,640. The architect was W.F. Wise. When dedicated, all businesses closed at noon so the people could be present for the dedication. The Municipal Building was built on the site of the National Hotel (1870's) the Constitutional Amendment Hotel (1880's) and then private homes.
