ST. GEORGE, Utah — Big-D Construction has completed the new St. George City Hall and public parking structure, a $51.5 million project that will serve as the civic hub for one of the nation’s fastest-growing cities. A grand opening celebration is scheduled for January 17, 2026.

The new City Hall, located at 61 S Main Street, is a three-story, 78,000-square-foot steel frame building that blends historic downtown architecture with modern design. Situated to align with the iconic clock tower in the center of the town square, the building anchors a revitalized downtown core. The north side features a Council Chamber with seating for 300 people, which doubles as a flexible community gathering space. The south side houses city offices, conference rooms, collaboration areas, and employee amenities. A spacious atrium connects the two wings, serving as a pedestrian pathway between the parking structure and the town square.

The project also includes a four-story parking garage with 300 spaces and a new community plaza designed for everyday use and larger public events. The plaza incorporates water-wise landscaping, reflecting the community’s commitment to sustainability in the high desert environment.

Big-D Construction self-performed all structural concrete on the project. The City Hall represents a significant milestone for Big-D’s St. George office, which opened in May 2023 as part of the company’s strategic investment in southern Utah’s growing construction market.

The new City Hall arrives at a pivotal moment for St. George, which was recently ranked as the second-best performing city economically in the United States for 2024. The region has experienced job growth of nearly 24 percent over the past five years and significant expansion in healthcare, technology, and professional services. The modern facilities will help city government keep pace with the demands of a community that continues to attract families, retirees, and businesses to southern Utah.

“We are proud to have delivered a building that will serve the St. George community for generations,” said Judd Bundy, Big-D Regional Manager. “This project reflects our commitment to being a long-term partner in southern Utah. When you’re trusted to build your city’s most important civic building, that’s a responsibility we take seriously, and it’s exactly why we established our presence here.”

“City Hall belongs to the community,” said St. George City Manager John Willis. “As our population has grown, so has the need for spaces that are open, efficient and welcoming. This building is designed to make it easier to get things done — from paying a bill to speaking at a public meeting.”
