GeorgiaThis modern State Court building on Carl Vinson Parkway in Warner Robins reflects Houston County's unusual split judiciary: its State Court meets in Warner Robins, the county's largest city, while the Superior Court and the county's historic seat of government remain in Perry. Warner Robins itself is a comparatively young city that mushroomed around Robins Air Force Base after World War II, which explains why the county's newest court functions sit here rather than on a historic square. The structure is a low, contemporary building of brick, concrete, and glass rather than a landmark courthouse, and it carries no significant nineteenth- or early twentieth-century courtroom history of its own. The county's older buildings, including the 1948-1949 courthouse on the Perry square, hold Houston County's earlier judicial past.
