Civics
6
Completed in 1915 at a cost of $275,000, this structure is one of Ohio's larger courthouses and the third courthouse built in this vicinity. Designed by the architectural firm Richards, McCarty, and Bulford, it is an excellent example of Neoclassical Revival architecture. Its interior is notable for an outstanding leaded stained glass skylight, brass chandeliers, and murals. Twelve large exterior light standards are made of solid brass, while the exterior walls and terrace railings are made of Indiana Gray Limestone, and the steps and surrounding curbs consist of granite.
