NYFE Summary
Staten Island’s civic offices moved from Richmondtown to St. George after consolidation with New York City. This courthouse and neighboring Borough Hall formed part of a plan for a government center facing the ferry landing.
Broad steps lead to a row of tall columns beneath a triangular pediment. The original scheme placed a garden between the courthouse and Borough Hall.
