A Pile Of Buildings, Built To Last

Upon its completion in 1884, the Supreme Court building was declared handsome and a wonderful structure for a city of half-a-century. The building took 10 years to complete and was not without controversy for both its design and cost. The largest building project of the colonial period it was built to last and you can still admire the skill and workmanship of its construction and interiors.
