Plan Proposed to Expand Judicial Rooms in Post Office Building
A three judge plan would relocate the main courtroom to the opposite end of the third floor and add a second large courtroom in the east wing. The judge offices would sit beside the courts, displacing the Interstate Commerce Commission and deputy U.S. marshal space. A third judge would use the small courtroom with minimal office changes while staff occupy former assistant U.S. attorney space. Some agencies would need new offices elsewhere.
