The Joseph P. Kinneary United States Courthouse is a federal courthouse in

U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio
.

History

The building was constructed as a post office and courthouse in 1934. Renovations completed in July 2014 improved the interiors and exterior, and reduced water and electric usage. Installations included high-efficiency water boilers, air-handling units, a building automation system, a rainwater harvesting tank, light fixtures, occupancy and daylight harvesting sensors, and low-flow water fixtures. On the exterior, portions of the building's sandstone facade and chimney were repaired or replaced. Its windows were reglazed, and its

penthouses were re-paneled.[2]

Attributes and design

The courthouse is located along the Scioto River by Battelle Riverfront Park (part of the Scioto Mile). It is named after Joseph Peter Kinneary, a former judge.[2]

The building is mainly used by the

U.S. Marshals, attorneys, probation, and pretrial services.[2]

The building is designed in the

Berea sandstone cladding, while the windows have Vermont marble panels and iron grill encasements.[2]
