Description:
King County Courthouse

The King County Courthouse in Seattle, designed by architect A. Warren Gould, was completed in 1916. This ten storey building is a typical example of civic building design in early 20th century America. The style is Beaux Arts, which was the conservatively acceptable style for any civic building of the period.

In 1929, Henry Bittman and his associate, J.L. McCauley, began the second phase of construction with the addition of six stories to be completed by 1931.

In 1967, a large remodelling project was undertaken by the architectural firm of Paul Delaney and Associates giving the interior a modernising facelift.

In 1987, the King County Courthouse was registered as a King County landmark. This not only placed importance on the structure as a historical marker, but it also encouraged restoration of the building.

This asset was commissioned by nicocn383 for his fictional city of Strathcona based on a mix of Seattle, WA and Vancouver, B.C. Essentially a rainy and green North American city on the Pacific coast.

A big "thank you" to nicocn383 for providing the excellent screenshots.

The asset can be found in the ‘Unique Buildings’ tab.

RICO

Included with this asset is RICO compatibility which allows the building to function as a large office. If you subscribe to Ploppable Rico Revisited this asset will appear in the RICO ‘Offices’ tab.

I’ve tried to make this asset as realistic as possible and therefore the geometry tri count is high and the textures large. All of the texture elements have been created specifically for this asset in order for full control over the final look.

Please try this asset out and if there are any problems let me know in the comments below.
