Kinco Constructors of Little Rock recently purchased a building permit valued at $3.3 million to construct a new district court building for the city of Fayetteville.
The 13,500 SF building will replace the former city jail on the corner of Rock and Church streets.

Nearly 50 percent of the building’s demolition material will be reused.

The new court building will increase the city’s district court space from four offices to 12 offices.
Architects Wilson Estes Police of Mission, Kan., have designed the building to achieve LEED certification.
Construction is expected to be completed within 12 months.
