Info

The Douglas County Courthouse in Lawrence, Kansas is a three-and-a-half-story stone building built in 1903.
It was designed by noted 19th-century architect John G. Haskell in association with another architect, Frederick C. Gunn.
It is a Richardsonian Romanesque work.
Its "dominant feature" is a six-story-tall square clock tower, with four minarets and a pyramidal roof topped by a metal finial. There is also a smaller octagonal stair tower with an eight-sidez roof, topped by another finial. Windows in the stair tower alternate on the five visible sides of the tower.
