MMD Awarded Design Services for DC Courts

MMD has been retained for renovation work in the H. Carl Moultrie Courthouse, at 500 Indiana Avenue, NW — a courthouse of the Superior Court of the District of Columbia.

As architects for the renovation of the third floor West Wing Courtrooms, MMD is participating through a collaboration with Cooper Building as a design build process of delivery for this assignment. Our charge is to duplicate the previous renovation of the 2nd floor West Wing renovation but to provide services that would bring the design documents up to current code and to find specifications, finishes, equipment and fixtures to replace past specified items that are no longer available in today’s marketplace. The MMD architecture team is also assigned the task of delivering ADA accessible spaces via ramps in lieu of the previously specified chair lifts.

“As a native Washingtonian, resident and business owner based in Washington DC, I am fully aware of the importance of our judicial system and its proper implementation as a civic right. As designers we appreciate the need for the correct execution and construction of our judicial environments for fair and proper uses for all whose right is to have their day in court. We are proud to provide design services of the highest standards and quality for this important assignment,” said MMD’s Michael Marshall.
