Stone Restoration

Monroe County Courthouse

History: Designed by Mifflin G. Bell, the Courthouse exemplifies the late 19th century Romanesque architectural style. Constructed in 1896, the building still stands as the city’s primary courthouse.

Scope: Replacement of architectural red sand stone façade elements. Design and restoration of front entrance loggia feature that had been previously removed.

Challenge: Replacing in-situ stone pieces without disrupting adjacent units and historic restoration on façade.

Result: Award-winning façade restoration with newly carved Corinthian capitals and balustrade.
