SAN DIEGO, Calif. – Rudolph and Sletten, Inc. recently celebrated the topping out of the new San Diego Central Courthouse in San Diego, California. The topping out recognized the work of the construction crews and project partners as the 25-story, $555-million project was assembled to its full height.
When occupied in early 2017, the new courthouse will combine several of the Superior Court of San Diego County’s spaces and offer a full-service facility for criminal, civil, probate, family and small claims matters, with space for court administration, security operations and holding areas.
The topping-out event included a ceremony as the final beam of the building, signed by all 650 construction crew members, was placed atop the high-rise. The development, designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP, is intended to meet the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED Silver standards.
