Law Courts (Edmonton)

The Law Courts building is the main courthouse in the city of Edmonton, the capital of Alberta, Canada.

Edmonton was repeatedly passed over while purpose-built courthouses were constructed in much smaller, younger settlements.

In 1908, construction began on a new Beaux-Arts/Greek revival courthouse, on what is now the west side of Churchill Square, to the southwest of the current Law Courts where the Edmonton City Centre mall now stands.

[3] The current building, in brutalist style, was built in the early 1970s and is reminiscent of Boston City Hall[4] and 222 Jarvis Street in Toronto, Ontario.
