When the 47th District Court, serving Farmington and Farmington Hills, outgrew their existing facility, they chose the architectural team of French Associates Inc., in association with Washington D.C. based Spillis/Candela DMJM, to design their new facility.

Located on the existing Farmington Hills Municipal Campus, the 40,000 square foot, two story building houses three court rooms, a Magistrate’ s hearing room, court administration, probation and related spaces. The Courthouse shares the campus with the Farmington Municipal Building and Fire Station. It has a vehicle ramp which allows access to the lower level sally port adjoining the Police Station. The project also included the redesign of the auto circulation and parking areas for the entire campus.
