Completed in July 2014, a project at the Kinneary Courthouse made both interior and exterior improvements and reduced energy and water consumption (see The Ohio Channel’s video news story).
Interior renovations included installation of high-efficiency water boilers, air-handling units, a building automation system, a rainwater harvesting tank, light fixtures, occupancy and daylight harvesting sensors, and low-flow water fixtures.
The exterior work repaired or replaced portions of the deteriorating sandstone façade and chimney, re-glazed the windows, and re-paneled the penthouses. Due to the courthouse’s historic nature, the project preserved the original carved stones while matching new flat stones to the existing building.
The Kinneary Courthouse offers three conference rooms with capacities of 20 to 60 people. Each room features a conference phone, with a projector and podium available upon request. Contact Property Manager Alexandria Crank for reservations. The building also offers a cafeteria vending stand on the first floor and a federal tenant fitness center in the basement.
The Kinneary Courthouse is mainly occupied by the U.S. District Court and Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals. The U.S. Marshals, Attorneys, Probation, and Pre-Trial Services also have offices in the courthouse.
The building’s Neoclassical style architecture featuring cornices, three elevations, and a massive colonnade. The façade of the building is composed mainly of granite wainscot and Berea sandstone cladding, while the windows feature Vermont marble panels and iron grill encasements, creating old world elegance. In June 2012 the Kinneary Courthouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places.
