This facility replaced the existing under-sized and outdated courthouse and consolidates a nearby lease for the Juvenile and Housing Court with a modern, secure, code compliant public building. The project preserved the historic portion of the existing courthouse and provides a modern, three-story addition for the courtrooms and public spaces.
