Robert F. Sweeney District Court House
Annapolis, Maryland

The curved glass atrium wall, when lit at night, is a beacon. During the day, it is the window into the justice served in Annapolis.The joint venture with Ammon/ DMJMH+N, the Design Team created a building that uniquely responded to the strict requirements of the State of Maryland's Court System.

Security, monitoring and multiple circulation systems were carefully designed into the layout of this four story building. A significant contribution to this area, this building's design reflects the judicial excellence and civic pride of historic Annapolis.

Louis Boublitz District Court House
Hagerstown, Maryland

Located in the historic district of Hagerstown, this new court house reflects the architectural style of the city while infusing a contemporary flair. While only a 28,000-square foot building, the Ammon/DMJM Design joint venture team created a courthouse that is monumental, evoking the importance of the judicial system in this community.

The team programmed the courthouse to conform to Maryland District Court's strict criteria. It includes two courtrooms (including one for an eight-person jury), two judicial chambers, a 24-hour Commissioner's Department and administrative support spaces.
