Robert P. Griffin Hall of Justice Since I had my camera in hand, I pointed it at another courthouse that was visible from the same window of our room at Park Place. 

This building's windows are opaque during daylight hours. After dark, not so much. The wing on the left was originally a Congregational church; that on the right was Presbyterian. The combined architecture makes for a really interesting structure.
