The Gwinnett Justice and Administration Center (also called the Gwinnett County Courthouse or GJAC) is a courthouse and administrative center for Gwinnett County, Georgia located in the county seat of Lawrenceville, Georgia.
The Gwinnett Justice and Administration Center was built in 1988[1] at a cost of $72 million[2] to replace the original Gwinnett County Courthouse, which had been built in 1872 shortly after the American Civil War.[3]
The facility was designed by architecture firms Richardson, Inc. from Dallas, Texas, and Architects Plus from Norcross, Georgia.[2]
In 2021 the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners approved a $34 million renovation to the Gwinnett Justice and Administration Center and the nearby One Justice Square building.[1] The One Justice Square building is one block away from the GJAC and contains office spaces for the Gwinnett County Department of Planning and Development[4]
