Six years of planning and hard work came to fruition on March 15 with the dedication of the fully restored 1916 County Court House. Commission Chairperson Addie L. Greene emceed the proceedings and was delighted by the turnout. Several hundred invited dignitaries and enthusiastic well-wishers listened intently as officials from the Historical Society, the School District, and the County explained the many commitments and partnerships that went into preserving this architectural treasure. The crowd then made its way across the street from the atrium of the current courthouse to the steps of the new “old” 1916 Court House to cut the ribbon and tour the new Richard and Pat Johnson Palm Beach County History Museum inside.
