PROJECT COST: $36.1 Million
This new judicial complex will house the administrative, courts and detention components of the county government and consists of three, two-story buildings totalling approximately 137,753 sq ft, linked together designed around a central courtyard. A concrete-encased tunnel 12 ft underground connects the courthouse and jail. A state-of-the-art security system adds to the complexity of the design. BIM was used to provide integration of the complex mechanical and electrical systems with the building�s steel construction.
