The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) has broken ground on a new courthouse for the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania in Harrisburg.
The 243,000-sq.-ft. courthouse on about 4 acres will provide eight courtrooms, 11 chambers, 42 indoor parking spaces and holding cells for detainees. The new facility will also provide workspace for the U.S. Court Library, the U.S. Marshals Service, the U.S. Attorney’s Office and the U.S. Trustee Program, Correctional News reported.
The $192.7-million project was designed by New York-based Ennead Architects. Pittsburgh-based Mascaro Construction Co. is providing construction services.
The project is slated to be completed by fall 2021.
