The building is made of red bricks, orange concrete, and white stone. Four white columns rise in front of the courthouse's entrance while two stand on the right side of the building, which faces the right edge of the photo. The building has four rows of windows across each of its walls: one at the bottom of the building. two across the middle, and one along the top. Above and below the uppermost row of windows runs a line of orange concrete. Sitting above both the lines and the top row of windows on each side of the building is a circular design made of white stone.
