Clermont County Courthouse   Save
Robert Deshon Collection
Description: This is the side facade of the Clermont County Courthouse, located at 76 S. Riverside. It was built from 1935-1936 by architects Hunt and Allan with the aid of the Works Progress Administration. It represents Neoclassical architecture, and the red brick and limestone facade, accentuated with large windows in the front that light the courtroom, is surmounted by a wide, limestone entablature, which creates an impressive county building for local citizens. An addition was dedicated in 1998 after the extra space became necessary with the rapid growth of the county's population. The white building behind the courthouse currently houses the Adult Probation department. Its front facade is shown here. View on Ohio Memory.
