"Along with the move of the county seat came an obligation to build a modern county courthouse. Designed by renowned architect J. Francis Pillsbury, the Eagle County Courthouse was constructed in 1932 at a cost of $60,000. The sheriff's office was on the basement floor along with living quarters for the jailer. The jail and courtroom were on the third floor (note the bars on the window at leaft). -- Kathy Heicher, Early Eagle p.82
