Carbondale City Hall and Courthouse, also known as the Carbondale Municipal Building, is a historic city hall and courthouse building located at Carbondale, Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania. It was built in 1892-1894, and is a brick and bluestone building in the Romanesque-style. It consists of five-story, square, corner tower; three-story wing; and two-story brick wing. The three-story wing, along with the tower, houses the Carbondale City Hall. It features a massive, half-circle primary entrance and rusticated stone and brick turrets.
