El Centro Criminal Courthouse

Project overview

Vanir served as the program and construction manager for the new 46,810-square-foot El Centro Criminal Courthouse for the Superior Court of California, Imperial County. The two-story facility consists of:

  • Four courtrooms
  • An in-custody holding area
  • Support spaces
  • 132 surface parking spaces for the public, juror and staff

Located on a 3.57-acre site, the courthouse consolidates court operations from two facilities. This relieves the former space shortfall, increases security and replaces inadequate and obsolete buildings in Imperial County.
