Two giant Corinthian columns, complete with a pediment, adorn the entrance. A dome sits atop Roman Doric columns sporting a clock on each side. A copper statue of Justice stands on the peak of the dome. Extensive remodeling work was done in the past which included the removal of the grand sandstone steps leading to the first floor rotunda and the addition of a central elevator which destroyed the spectacular rotunda area. Since is construction, this building has been the center of government for Brown County.
