U.S. General Services Administration announces new Huntsville federal courthouse nearing completion
Huntsville, Ala. – The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) announces that construction on the new U.S. Courthouse in Huntsville has reached a major milestone. General contractor Brasfield & Gorrie achieved substantial completion on the building in late July, making way for the first U.S. Courts tenant to prepare plans for relocation and occupancy, currently slated to begin in September. Landscaping work will continue through the end of this calendar year.
“This new federal courthouse represents the best of what is possible when federal and local governments, as well as public and private sectors work together,” said Regional Administrator Jason Shelton. “Projects like this require a great deal of planning and coordination by GSA employees. It’s exciting to reach a milestone like this because I know how much time, work, and energy has gone into the planning.”
The 123,100 gross-square-foot building will house the U.S. District Court, Northern District of Alabama. It includes five courtrooms and six judges’ chambers and will provide workspace for several other federal agencies, including the U.S. Marshals Service, the U.S Probation and Pretrial Services, GSA and a U.S. Senate Office. It will also have 26 secured parking spaces.
Construction crews will continue to work on other project details, including the site and landscaping, through the end of the year. A building dedication is currently planned for the Spring 2025.
