The Old Charlotte County Courthouse is an historic two-story yellow brick courthouse building located at 227 Taylor Street in Punta Gorda, Florida, Florida. Designed in the Classical Revival style by architects Leitner and Henson of St. Petersburg, it was built between 1927 and 1928 by Paul H. Smith of Haines City. Additions were made to the building the 1960s and 1980s but in 1999 it was replaced by a new Justice Center and then fell into disuse. In 2005, the additions having been demolished, the Board of County Commissioners undertook the restoration and renovation of the original 1928 structure that remained. It was reopened to the public in a ceremony on February 29, 2008. 〔''A Guide to Florida's Historic Architecture'', 1989, Gainesville: University of Florida Press, p. 121, ISBN 0-8130-0941-3〕 〔(Charlotte County Courthouse Re-opening booklet )〕 〔(Florida's Historic Courthouses: Charlotte County Courthouse )〕 〔(Waymarking listing for Charlotte County Courthouse )〕 In 1989, the Old Charlotte County Courthouse was listed in ''A Guide to Florida's Historic Architecture'', published by the University of Florida Press.〔''A Guide to Florida's Historic Architecture'', 1989, Gainesville: University of Florida Press, p. 121 ISBN 0-8130-0941-3〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Old Charlotte County Courthouse」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
