The Alpine County Courthouse was designed by Frederic J. DeLongchamp, a Reno, Nevada-born designer and engineer of mining who was born on June 2, 1882 and educated in Nevada. He designed 500 buildings, libraries, hotels, and post offices in the counties of the State of Nevada, including this courthouse. Built in 1928, the Alpine County Courthouse was constructed of a light cream colored massive rhyolite tuff quarried from Silver Mountain City, and after seventy years of service it continues to exercise local government.
