The courthouse sits on the green lawn enclosed by the sidewalk, with multiple trees growing near the building and the telephone poles. A flagpole rises amongst foliage near the courthouse's entrance, flying the Texas and American flags. The building itself is made of white stone and brick with orange tile roofing. There is a central section obscured by trees, though a triangular pediment is visible, above which is a clock tower sitting on the roof. On either side of the central portion of the courthouse are additional rectangular sections, both connected to the central section by narrow walls. Columns occupy the middle of both rectangular sections. Each section of the building has four rows of windows spanning their width, including a row of smaller windows at the top and bottom edges of the courthouse.
