Duval Country Courthouse and Annex
Built in 1902, the Neo-Classical Revival style with a towering domed cupola. In 1914, the need for increased court space resulted in plans for the Duval County Courthouse Annex to be built next to the 1902 courthouse.
The facade of the annex building features four Ionic columns, rusticated quoins and various other classical motifs including a parapet with catoucheches and a balastrade.
In 1960, Jacksonville lost this building when the Courthouse was demolished for a parking lot. The Annex was remodled for office space by the City of Jacksonville, now called the Yates Building.Collection
