The Probate Court is a neoclassical style building on Essex Street was built in 1909.
A modern addition was built in the back of the main building in 1979.
After the J. Michael Ruane Court house was completed in 2011, the plan was to renovate the Probate Court.
Work began in the fall of 2014 on the new addition to the Probate Court. The interior will also
be renovated.
The new addition will house the judges' lobbies, a courtroom and operational space, but will be
significantly smaller than the old one and mirror more the style of the 1909 building.
