261:
and for housing county government during 1921–1947. It is the only example of "monumental, Neo-Classical
Revival architecture" in the Owens Valley area. According to its NRHP nomination "This elaborately designed building represents the peak of local autonomy in the Owens Valley, before the City of
270:
space a half-mile away, to provide a minimally ADA accessible location for some court proceedings. A facilities planning site of the state of

265:
The courthouse cornerstone was laid down in 1922. It was the fourth courthouse of the county, and replaced a version that was too small and was torn down after the present courthouse was built. Weeks was very experienced as an architect; he had designed more than 1,000 buildings already by 1915.
