The court is an essential and critical public facility fulfilling the necessary responsibility for the community. The City's municipal courthouse is located at 1400 Lubbock Street, west of Interstate 45 and north of Buffalo Bayou and is located within the 100-year-old floodplain. In late August of 2017, the courthouse sustained severe levels of damage because of Hurricane Harvey due to overflowing floodwater from Buffalo Bayou entering at multiple locations. The City's plan involves the complete demolition of the current facility and the underground tunnel connecting the courthouse with the building at 61 Riesner St. Following this, a new facility will be constructed. The new facility shall include at a minimum, state-of-the-art courtrooms, various office spaces, judges' chambers, and public restrooms. The City's municipal courthouse, built in 1973, encompasses an area of 104,000 square feet and features a precast concrete wall panel and steel frame construction. The facility consists of two stories, along with a fully utilized basement that includes an exterior stairwell entrance with a 4-foot floodwall. Within the building, there are five municipal courtrooms, various office spaces, judges' chambers, a detention room, public restrooms, two elevators, and an engine room. The first floor is dedicated to courtrooms and public service areas. Anticipated Council Date October, 2025.
