Milwaukee Federal Courthouse

The General Services Administration has chosen Interior Insulating Windows by Maine Glass as a part of several renovation projects at the Milwaukee Federal Courthouse. The Federal Court building is an impressive structure that was largely completed before 1900, and is on the National Register of Historic Places. Maine Glass was chosen for several reasons, none more important than the ability to update the interior look of the courtrooms without altering the exterior sightlines.

Rather than go through the costly process of finding identical replacement windows, Milwaukee officials chose to go with the much more cost effective and energy efficient Interior Insulating Windows. In different parts of the courthouse, the GSA selected different color windows to match the interior décor. In many areas the GSA selected between-the-glass blinds. In some special, hard to access areas, the building installed blinds that are operated by a remote electrical wall mounted switch.
