i_am_jim Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 This building, which was constructed in 1909-1910, served as the fifth Harris County Courthouse. Designed by Charles Erwin Barglebaugh, an associate in the prominent Dallas architectural firm of Lang and Winchell, the building features classical revival styling. Outstanding details include the domed roof, ornate central projections, or risalits, with Corinthian columns, and elaborate ornamentation of terra cotta, limestone and masonry. Building materials include pink Texas granite and light brown St. Louis brick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
