The building was known for being the tallest building in South Florida for decades and in January of 1989 it was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. The structure was built in the 1920s.

Over the years, the building has seen its fair share of issues. In 2021, the courthouse was evacuated after engineers discovered safety concerns during a review of the building’s structural integrity.
