Construction of a new U.S. Courthouse in Jefferson City, Mo., is expected to begin in 2008. The U.S. Courts and other offices are currently located in the U.S. Post Office and Courthouse Building at 131 West High Street, and at several leased properties in the downtown area.

This project first began in March of 1999 following a Congressional request to correct security, consolidation and space issues in the existing federal court facilities. A study completed by GSA in 2001 concluded the Jefferson City court facilities required substantial updates.

Design funding in the amount of $5.2 million was secured in late 2005, and an agreement was reached with the Missouri State Penitentiary Redevelopment Commission on January 17, 2006, to receive eight acres of land for construction of the new U.S. Courthouse.

Project Location: Old Prison Site – West (Corner of Lafayette and State streets)

Project Scope: This courthouse will provide space for two District Courtrooms, two Magistrate Courtrooms and associated chambers to support each of these courtrooms. In addition to the courtrooms/chambers, there will be space for a Bankruptcy Chamber, the United States Marshals Service, United States Attorney, Probation and Pretrial Services. There will also be
space for GSA, Senators and Congressmen.

Total Estimated Project Cost: $71 million
