The Present Andrews County Courthouse

Andrews, Texas

Architect - W.T. Strange
Style - Moderne
Material - Brick
The building has been dramatically modifided over the years.


Photographer's Note:
"The front of the Andrews County courthouse faces U.S. 385. Additions to the front, the sides and a large addition to the rear has obscured most of the original building, but perhaps that's a good thing. A new elevator was being installed during my visit in June, 2006. Aside from the courtroom, the only other interesting thing I saw on the inside was a Kirby vacuum cleaner in a glass case. It's the one-millionth vacuum cleaner built at the Kirby-West manufacturing plant in Andrews. " - Terry Jeanson
