Woods and Woods Help to Preserve Downtown
In mid-November 2004, Evansville-based law firm Woods and Woods moved its offices into the Old Vanderburgh County Jail and Sheriff’s Residence.
The jail was originally built in 1890 and served as home to the sheriff as well as accused criminals. The building was remodeled in 1937 and then abandoned by Vanderburgh County 1969 when the current jail was opened in the Civic Center. The Old Jail was converted to office space in during the 1990’s and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The Old Jail, as well as the Old Courthouse situated across the street, were designed by European-trained architect Henry Wolters in the late 19 th century. The buildings are important architectural elements in the downtown Evansville historical district.
The Old Jail is owned by Vanderburgh County, but Woods and Woods won the right to lease the building form the Old Courthouse Foundation until 2067.
