Project Details: Currently, the offices of the City Government has moved to the third floor of Robinsons Place Iloilo months ago to give way to the demolition of the old city hall building near Plaza Libertad and construction of a new seven story edifice on the same site.
The architecture of the new Iloilo City Hall will fuse the architectural elements found in the historic buildings of the city such as the:
University of the Philippine’s Library (Exterior design)
Masonic Temple (Windows)
Iloilo Customs House (Exterior of fifth to sixth floor).
Hello to all employees in City Hall,
Guys I missed you all! I wish to come there , but not this time indi pa kumpleto ang akon nga sinumptan…sigh! Nahidlaw na ako sa akon anay nga mga ka-officina dira sa “Sangguniang Panlungsod”. At last they finally decided to build a new City Hall at this time. It’s time nga bag-uhon ang City Hall kayman dilicado inang Campus building. Da-an na inang building katama. Campus building is antique, and there’s no way nga padugayon pa. Thanks to Mayor Jerry Trenas and his staffs. Goodluck to all of you,and God bless! See yah y’all next year. Cheers to all!

Hi,
I liked the nine storey design of Iloilo City Hall. We need extra space for this outlet. Compared to Iloilo Provincial Capitol Building has so much office spaces. As I figured out when I was working with late Kagawad Mel Nava, matama ka gutok sadto. If you ask me, I preferred the first design which was a nine storey building. Thanks. Cheers!

I enjoy reading the beauty of iloilo…but i was hoping to know more…especially on the history’s of how zamora and other barangays on that area started to live there life. It maybe the negative site of iloilo but history searches its memory from the very bigining as a part of its out standing development trough time..without it, apreciation of how much it has survive all sorts of test to prove how great is iloilo is actually meaningless or unsatisfying. thank you so much for puttimg up this website.
I have heard that a business group who is developing the old Iloilo airport has offered to build the new city hall for almost FREE.
I wonder why this OFFER WAS NOT ACCEPTED BY THE CITY.
It is also regretable that the City torn down a very old and historic structure instead of rehabilatating it and protect our legacy.
If the offer is accepted,it could have paved the way for:
1. Saving to the city;
2. Decongest the City; and
3. Create a vehicle to multiply the commerce to other parts of Metro Iloilo instead of lumping everything to the old portion of the City.
What ever is the reason of the City Government : it is hoped that it is beyond political surival since it is already near election time.
hello,
am a net surfer and i learned that iloilo has so much wonderful places to be enjoy with family and so much heritage sites that will help us a lot to remember to teach our children how to give value such things, i love it!
