Once described as a "gilded palace of extravagance," the 1910 courthouse is an excellent example of Second Renaissance Revival architechture. The rotunda is lit by a stained glass dome 35 feet in diameter. The courthouse is one of the oldest existing courthouses in Washington, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
