pale green walls and gold stencil decoration around the ceiling is repeated throughout
the courthouse." - Terry

| "The
restored district courtroom. Although the exterior of this courthouse had been
restored and rededicated on June 11, 2002, the interior was still unfinished during
my initial visit in March of 2005. In June of 2006, the interior was just about
finished. The final touches were being added to the interior of the courtroom
when I took this picture." - Terry
