Lott + Naugle Architects served as the local design team firm for the recently completed Judge Eugene H. Gadsden Courthouse. The 155,000 sf facility, located in downtown Savannah, brings much needed capacity to the judicial functions of Chatham County. The building massing was purposely developed to create a transparent void, a 21 foot wide four story atrium space to reflect the former York Street Lane. Dewberry served as Architect of Record.
