Taipei City Government

The Taipei City Government {^[I] is the municipal government of Taipei.

Taipei was known as Taihoku during Japan's rule of Taiwan, which started in 1895. Initially, the city was directly controlled by the Governor-General of Taiwan.^[1] In 1920, Japan reorganized the system of local government in Taiwan. As part of this, the Taihoku City Government was established within Taihoku Prefecture.

The city government was initially housed in buildings belonging to Huashan Elementary School.^[1] In 1940, a new city hall was opened on the same site. It was three- to four-stories tall and built in a modernist style.^[2]

After Taiwan was handed over to the Republic of China on 25 October 1945, Taipei became a provincial municipality and the capital of Taiwan Province. Its city hall was established in the former campus of Jian Cheng Elementary School.^[3] The old city hall building was turned over to house the provincial government for Taiwan. It became the Executive Yuan building in 1957.^[1]

The Republic of China government was forced to retreat to Taiwan in 1949, and Taipei became the nation's seat of government. In 1967, Taipei's status was upgraded to a cabinet-level municipality. Its service thus grew much bigger with the large increase of population. Taipei's city hall could only accommodate around 1,000 employees, and many other units were scattered in various rented offices.^[4]

In order to carry the city government jobs effectively, a new Taipei City Hall was opened in 1994 in the Xinyi District.^[4] The old city hall building became the Museum of Contemporary Art Taipei and the campus of Jian Cheng Junior High School.^[3]
