The 175,000 feet, three-story Hilo Judiciary complex, incorporates an underground basement, adjacent one story wing, seven general-purpose courtrooms, two family courtrooms, law library, holding cells, and meeting rooms.
The new building will facilitate all court services that are offered at the state judiciary’s Waiakea office plaza and on Kilauea Avenue. The building is a replacement for the Hilo State office building, located across Aupuni Street.
The construction, which began in March 2005, cost excludes $600,000 and was funded by the State Foundation on Culture and the Arts for two exterior works of art.
