Date Set For Demolition Of The Court House

The public is invited to watch (from a safe distance) the demolition start at 10 a.m., Feb. 9. The demolition of the San Pedro court house at the corner of 6th and Centre streets will take between 30 and 50 days to complete. Construction is scheduled to begin in late summer and will take two years. The project is being built by Genton Cockrum Partners.

Supervisor Janice Hahn made the following statement:

“This is a project that we have been looking forward to for a long time. This project is so important because it is in the heart of downtown. We are building apartments that people can afford, bringing more people to downtown, and there is a proposal to put a labor museum on the ground floor. It meets our town’s values because it is labor-financed and labor-built.”
