New York City Hall is the chief administrative building of the City & County of New York.

History

Primary Canon History

In 1984, the Ghostbusters were brought to City Hall to speak before Mayor Lenny and several other government officials about the impending Gozer Incident. The Mayor sided with the Ghostbusters and had Walter Peck removed. The Ghostbusters departed from the hall's loading dock with a police escort and the National Guard.

In 1989, Mayor Lenny declared the Ghostbusters were needed to deal with the Psychomagnotheric Slime causing disturbances across the city. He learned Jack Hardemeyer had them committed and fired Jack.

Secondary Canon History

A couple days before the appearance of Idulnas, the Mayor and several city officials held a meeting with Walter Peck at City Hall. In order to keep the Ghostbusters in check for the best interest of the city, the Paranormal Contracts Oversight Commission was reinstated. Its temporary office was to be established in the Department of Public Safety.

In mid-June, Peck was summoned to the Mayor's office to discuss the Ghostbusters' trip out of state. The Mayor was irate at the prospect of the guys being gone during summer, the height of a tourism influx, but Peck revealed the city would be making a handsome commission from all jobs incurred. In the fall, Peter had an unscheduled appointment with Peck to discuss the Ghost Smashers. In May of the next year, Peck met with the Mayor and Deputy Mayor, Ms. Stone to discuss the surge of ghost-related complaints, the missing Ghostbusters, and the new Ghostbusters.
