I vote for a new building, on the same spot, that works as an optical illusion to look larger from a distance, like the castle at Disney.

The problem with the current site it access is terrible and they cannot build enough parking to accommodate the court system on site. I do like the thought of a castle.

Will that parking deck behind the old public services building be enough to staff a courthouse? I guess it was capable of holding inspection, engineering, and EMA staff before but I don’t know how many personnel outfit a courthouse

Not sure. I think they would have to build some new parking in a new structure. The judges parking needs to be protected for obvious reasons.
