In the January/February issue of Texas Architect magazine, we share our experience with county governments.
The new Denton County Southwest Courthouse is located on 5 acres in a new development along Canyon Falls Drive in Flower Mound, TX. The 32,000-square-foot building will accommodate the county clerk, tax office, constable, justice of the peace, Department of Community Supervision and Corrections, Denton County Juvenile Probation, Department of Public Safety, Health Services, Commissioner’s Suite, a community room, and support spaces. The facility’s exterior material palette consists of heavy timber elements with natural stone veneer and a standing seam metal roof to complement the Canyon Falls Development.
Halford Busby served as the cost estimator on the project, which was designed to attain LEED gold certification.
