History and Architectural Features
Completed in 1938 during the Franklin D. Roosevelt administration, the Potter Stewart U.S. Courthouse was the second federally-owned building erected on the current site and the third federally-owned building in Cincinnati.
Listed on the National Register of Historic Places and designed with both Art Deco and Art Moderne details, the courthouse features primary elevations clad in Indiana limestone atop a dark granite base. Significant interior spaces include the two-story main lobby with marble detailing, the original elevator lobbies with decorative brushed-aluminum elevator doors, and historic courtrooms with original wood paneling.
