Consolidated Courts Complex? Coming Right Up!

There has not been a lack of activity at the new Norfolk Consolidated Courts Complex.  The area, just off St. Paul’s Blvd. has been completely cleared and it seems utility work has begun.  I took a quick drive-by shot to document the progress.

The Norfolk City Website gives an overview of the project:

"This new complex will house the General District, Circuit, and Juvenile and Domestic Relations Courts. The first building will be constructed next to St. Paul’s Blvd. Then, the current General District Courts portion of the Public Safety building will be demolished to make way for a new facility. This state-of-the-art courts facility will be a LEED-certified (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) 'green building."
