Designed to replace the beautiful, but outmoded 1903 courthouse, this structure offers mute testimony to the fact that time sometimes judges the current architectural style of the day in a harsh light. With it's stark exterior and attached annex, ugly is probably the kindest word to describe this Courthouse.

It can be said there is plenty of free parking around the Courthouse, but with it's fountain showing a decided lack of maintenance and large clock on its exterior not working, only the two War Memorials and the Peace Officers Memorial located around the building offer anything to stop and ponder.
