Alex Giuliani Plaza is a park surrounding a vacant building indowntownHayward, California. The building was Hayward's first city hall. It is located onMission Boulevard and D Street.[1]
Hayward City Hall opened in 1930. A circle-in-square design element on the building's facade was used to create the current city logo. It served as Hayward City Hall between 1930 and 1969. When theCity Center Building opened in October 1969 the city government moved there. The currentHayward City Hall is located at 777 B Street, three blocks away from Giuliani Plaza.
Atrace from theHayward Fault runs directly under the old City Hall building. The building was abandoned due to structural damage caused byaseismic creep.
The Hayward9/11 Memorial, located adjacent to the city hall building, a small memorial featuring 5 black granite columns, was dedicated May 30, 2016, to the first responders who died, and to the city's own fallen first responders, and the city's fallen soldiers[2]
In 1999 the City of Hayward renamed the building and surrounding park Alex Giualini Plaza after the former mayor.[3]
