Below are a few photos taken recently of the ongoing renovation project at the Morrow County Courthouse in Mount Gilead.

At a time when one prominent Ohio county building is facing a most uncertain future, other counties are investing in their landmark courthouses.  In the case of Morrow County, the original portion of the structure was completed in 1851, making it one of the oldest in continuous operation in the state.

The renovation project is providing much needed room for court facilities and a new law library.  Attention is being paid to historic interior detailing in the original courthouse building.  This is very much a work in progress, however these images show the quality of the work which is being accomplished.

Congratulations to the Morrow County Commissioners for moving forward with this project!
