     I had to mail some artwork at the post office downtown, had a few spare minutes, and decided to walk around in Worcester City Hall. The interior is nearly as interesting as the exterior, which was loosely inspired by the Palazzo Vecchio. Some of their artwork is in rough shape, and the historical elements could be presented in a much more informative way, but all in all the building has a unique charm.
