Jackson County Courthouse in Kansas City, Missouri is located at 415 East 12th Street in Downtown Kansas City and houses judicial and administrative offices for the western portion of the county.

[2][3] In 1872, an unfinished hotel building located at 2nd and Main St was adapted by Asa Beebe Cross for use as the Jackson County Courthouse.

This building replaced the previous Kansas City courthouse annex at 5th and Oak, which officials deemed unsafe.

The courthouse contains an elaborate painted ceiling on the second floor featuring portraits of county employees.

[5] In the lobby are five medallions representing Faith, Authority, Justice, Aspiration, and Progress, sculpted in white and bronze by Kansas City sculptor Jorgen Dreyer.
