 | The DC Court of Appeals Building is a magnificent structure occupying a prominent spot in Judicial Square in downtown Washington, DC. |
Designed by George Hadfield, this Federal-style building was the first public facility for the District of Columbia. Built in 1820-21, it housed the fledgling government until 1873. It was here that the District's compensated emancipation of the city's slaves was administered during the Civil War. The City Hall has served many different tenants over the years. It occasionally served as a slave market before 1850, a Civil War fort briefly in 1861, an Army hospital from September-December 1862, and as the home of the U.S. Patent Office. Washington, DC's local government moved to the District Building at 1350 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, and is now located once again on Judiciary Square in a new building just north of its original location.
 | This unique arched window includes two pivoting sash on the center window units. Re-View conducted a details onsite survey of each window opening to establish dimensions and window details prior to fabrication. |
Re-View was responsible for manufacturing historically correct sash replacements for the original windows. The sash are made of Honduras mahogany and match the profiles and dimensions of the existing windows precisely. Re-View glazed the sash with insulated glass and applied a factory finish in two different colors.
