Cuyahoga County Courthouse

By Sandy Mitchell, About.com Guide

The Cuyahoga County Courthouse, at Ontario and Lakeside in downtown Cleveland, is one of several Beaux-Arts buildings created in the early 20th century as part of the city's "Grand Plan." The granite structure, designed by architects Daniel H. Burnham, John M. Carrere, and Arnold R. Brunner, was completed in 1912.

Today, the courthouse houses dozens of courtrooms, judges chambers, and offices, including the Estate Tax office and the Probate Court.
