Gwinnett County Courthouse

180:. The original county courthouse burned in 1872. The present day Courthouse was built in 1885. It served as the center of county business for over a century. As the population of the county grew, the Courthouse could no longer handle all of the county's business. In 1988, Gwinnett County moved the majority of its operations into the new Justice and Administration Building located at 75 Langley Drive in Lawrenceville. The old Courthouse underwent a lengthy three year renovation starting in 1989. It reopened on July 3, 1992, as the Gwinnett Historic Courthouse. Today, it serves as a rental venue for weddings, concerts, conferences, and other special events. It is one of the parks maintained by the Gwinnett County Parks and Recreation Department. 784: 206: 55: 795: 296: 673: 872: 768: 704: 688: 678: 887: 763: 709: 350: 730: 632: 663: 597: 562: 637: 542: 502: 327: 892: 877: 602: 592: 587: 567: 683: 517: 432: 552: 547: 422: 642: 607: 512: 487: 627: 577: 557: 532: 522: 507: 497: 482: 462: 437: 427: 417: 194:
