Theodore Roosevelt United States Courthouse

Visible from the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan, the U.S. Courthouse redefined the Brooklyn skyline and provided a landmark for the downtown civic center. Located on Camden Plaza, near the borough’s historic main post office and adjoined to the original courthouse, the courthouse is sympathetic to its historic Brooklyn surroundings while projecting a contemporary image for the U.S. federal justice system.
