Living New Deal"The three-story building (with an additional story in the basement) is built of “cast-in-place concrete” and the exterior is made of Texas limestone, with marble spandrels (Smith). Smith indicates the building is unique in that it retains the majority of its original fixtures, including the light fixtures, moldings, flooring, and other details.
The exterior features low-relief carvings and bronze doors. The interior features the terrazzo floor with a 1939 map inlaid in the floor at the entrance to the building, marble foyer walls, and original wood paneling and benches in the courtroom."
