The new Trial Court is proposed for the Hamilton Canal District and will include state-of-the-art facilities for the Superior, District, Probate & Family, Juvenile and Housing Courts for Northern Middlesex County. The project is expected to break ground in the spring of 2015 and be completed in 2017. The new Trial Court will include modern technology for enhanced security and energy efficiency. Congresswoman Niki Tsongas released the following statement. “This new courthouse will be a modern cutting-edge, energy efficient building that will set a new standard for sustainable design and quality of environment for visitors and staff. It will serve as a new landmark in the heart of Lowell and a symbol of the city’s reinvention. “I thank and applaud Governor Patrick for his leadership on this project and his staunch support for the City of Lowell and the surrounding region. In addition, the efforts of Senator EileenDonoghue and State Representatives Tom Golden, David Nangle and Kevin Murphy helped bring this project to fruition. “Throughout the rejuvenation of the Hamilton Canal District, my office has worked closely with all parties across all levels of government and the private sector to secure funding and keep this transformative project moving forward. Today’s Trial Court announcement is reflective of the crucial partnerships that are necessary to envision and execute innovative development ideas. “The Trial Court project – like the entire Hamilton Canal District project – is a model of what we can do when key stakeholders unite behind a vision for our community and work to make it a reality.” #### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
