New Courthouse, 30-Story Building Coming To Downtown Sacramento

SACRAMENTO (CBS13) - Sacramento is one step closer to getting a new courthouse. A state committee unanimously recommended plans for a new superior court building that would hold both criminal and civil courts.

The city can now start coming up with plans and drawings. The land near the railyard area has already been purchased.

Another big building may be going up in Downtown Sacramento next to the new downtown arena. The owners of a vacant lot on capitol mall say they plan to build a 30-story building.

The developer says it will be a mixed-use building containing offices and apartments on the upper floors with retail below it.

Construction would start in a couple of years.
