"In 1922 a corrugated iron and wooden two-story building was built on the present courthouse square. This building was located on the southwest corner of the square surrounded by stately oaks. Later, a park was made in the same block, with a covered well, where folks would gather on Saturday's when they came to town to do their trading and visiting. Later that year, a county jail was built on the northwest corner of the square."

"In 1936, the present brick courthouse was built as a WPA project at the cost of $38,000.00. The old courthouse was given to the Lake Butler Woman's Club, and has been used through the years as a Civic Center, Health Department, American Legion, Scouts and Civic groups, Neighborhood Service Center, and many other activities."
