The Whatcom Museum (housed in the Old City Hall, Lightcatcher building and Syre Education Center) was originally built in 1892 as the city hall for the former town of New Whatcom, before it was joined with surrounding towns to form Bellingham, Washington. The building was designed in a Late Victorian style by Alfred Lee, a local architect, who used red brick and Chuckanut Sandstone for its construction. The design itself was an almost exact replica of the second Saginaw County Courthouse in Saginaw, Michigan (1884, Destroyed 1971), Designed by Fred W. Hollister.

| - Whatcomské muzeum historie a umění se nachází v budově postavené roku 1892 jako radnice tehdejšího města New Whatcom, které se později se sousedními městy spojilo v Bellingham. Budovu postavil v pozdním viktoriánském stylu místní architekt Alfred Lee, který při stavbě použil červeného pískovce z Chuckanutských hor. Radnici postavil jako téměř přesnou repliku soudu v michiganském městě . Soud byl postaven roku 1884 Fredem W. Hollisterem a zbořen v roce 1971. (cs)

| - Whatcomské muzeum historie a umění se nachází v budově postavené roku 1892 jako radnice tehdejšího města New Whatcom, které se později se sousedními městy spojilo v Bellingham. Budovu postavil v pozdním viktoriánském stylu místní architekt Alfred Lee, který při stavbě použil červeného pískovce z Chuckanutských hor. Radnici postavil jako téměř přesnou repliku soudu v michiganském městě . Soud byl postaven roku 1884 Fredem W. Hollisterem a zbořen v roce 1971. Původně budova stála na útesu nad Bellinghamovým zálivem, postupem času jí ale vyplnění pobřeží půdou posunulo dále od pobřeží. Nyní se nachází nad Parkem námořního dědictví. Do roku 1936 budova sloužila jako radnice a v roce 1941 se stala částí muzea. V roce 1962 ji poškodil požár, poté však bylo od místních občanů vybráno dost peněz na rekonstrukci. V roce 2009 muzeum otevřelo pobočku v nové budově zvané Lightcatcher, kterou postavila skupina seattleských architektů Olson Kundig Architects. Svůj název, „chytač světla“, získala díky své 11 metrů vysoké a 55 metrů dlouhé zdi s mnoha energii šetřícími strategiemi. (cs)

The design itself was an almost exact replica of the second Saginaw County Courthouse in Saginaw, Michigan (1884, Destroyed 1971), Designed by Fred W. Hollister. At the time of construction, the building was situated on a bluff above Bellingham Bay. However, over the years, significant amounts of the waterfront were filled in to make more land. Currently, the building sits above Maritime Heritage Park. The building served as city hall until 1936, and became part of the museum in 1941. In 1962, the fire damaged the building, but efforts from the community raised money to restore the building. In 2009, The Whatcom Museum opened a location in the newly designed Lightcatcher building. The Lightcatcher, designed by Seattle-based Olson Kundig Architects, is named for its 37 feet high and 180 feet long translucent wall, which facilitates a number of energy saving strategies. Currently, the Whatcom Museum is a three building campus that includes Old City Hall, Syre Education Center and Lightcatcher which encloses the Family Interactive Gallery (FIG). (en)
