GREENE COUNTY COURTHOUSE

Waynesburg, PA

The Greene County Courthouse was constructed in the Greek Revival style in 1851. Beginning in the 1960’s the County planned for numerous large additions that were never carried out.

LDA prepared a plan for restoration of the Courthouse and construction of a modest addition which served as a backdrop structure, allowing the Courthouse to dominate the public square as it had for 144 years.

The historic Courthouse, including the main courtroom, the historic windows, and vaults was restored. The 15,000 SF addition holds an additional courtroom, judges quarters, offices and holding cells for the Sheriff, and court related offices. New electrical, HVAC, and plumbing systems were designed for the entire complex.

The project also included rehabilitation of the 30,000 SF Ft. Jackson Hotel Building across the street to act as swing space and consolidate county offices.
