DC District Court of Appeals
(formerly Old DC City Hall)
Washington, DC
LORING provided mechanical, electrical and plumbing engineering
design for the restoration, modernization and conversion of
this 99,000 sf historic structure built in the early 19th
century and originally used as the Old City Hall. Its most
recent use has been that of a courthouse whose activities were
gradually transferred to other facilities as the building
ultimately lapsed into disuse.
As part of a D.C. Court consolidation
program, the scope of this project includes a total renovation and
restoration of the original building while upgrading its
infrastructure to "state-of-the-art" and converting it to
serve as the D.C. Court of Appeals. The current program call for a
40,000 sf addition and a two-level, 90,000 sf underground parking
structure.
