The Old Turrell City Hall is a historic government building at 160 Eureka Street in Turrell, Arkansas. Built c. 1955, it is a classic example of a Quonset Hut, a form popularized during World War II for military uses. It has corrugated metal walls and ceiling, and is set on a concrete foundation. Its main facade, in one of the vertical ends, has a centrally-positioned garage door, with a sash window to the left, and a pedestrian entrance to the right. The building was used as city hall until 1968, when the present hall was built.[2]
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.[1]
