The courthouse was built in four phases, expanding to meet the growing needs of the county. In 1951, the original courthouse (see below) was demolished to make way for a more modern structure. A second addition was added in 1954. Two more additions came along, the first in 1968 and the second, the eight story tower, was started in 1972 and completed in 1976.
