Before and After Restoration
The restoration of the 1927 Classical Revival courthouse included restoring the original green tile roof and replacing the aluminum windows with wood casement windows, painted green to match the roof. The building's Leuders limestone exterior was cleaned and patched. All mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire-protection systems were replaced to meet modern standards. Walls and trim were painted with historic paint colors to complement the existing terrazzo floors, polished to the original luster. The county courtroom was reconstructed, while improvements to the district courtroom included installation of a new acoustical ceiling and sound system, restored lighting and fixed seating, and reconstruction of the gallery overlooking the space.
