Ind. Courts - "Ceremony marks construction of new federal courthouse"

Brian M. Boyce reports today in the Terre Haute Tribune Star in a story that begins:

TERRE HAUTE — A crowd huddled beneath a cold tent Friday afternoon on Ohio Street as officials said they hope a future courthouse will not only serve the community, but also will help with the city’s development.

“For those of you who thought it would be a cold day in Terre Haute before they built another government building … you were right,” joked Judge Larry McKinney, U.S. District Court of the Southern District of Indiana, noting the cold temperatures.

McKinney and others participated in the groundbreaking ceremony for a new federal courthouse at 921 Ohio St. Officials hope to open the courthouse in July. * * *

Tenants of the building will include the U.S. Bankruptcy Court and District Court, the U.S. Marshals, the U.S. Attorney and probation department.
