The building was built for the Louisiana Supreme Court in 1910. It began falling into disrepair due to lack of maintainence, and in 1957 it was sold to the Department of Wildlife and Fisheries, and the Supreme Court rented a "temporary space" in the CBD. Wildlife and Fisheries occupied the building until 1981, when the city bought it back from them. In 1991 a firm was hired to renovate the building, and in 2004 the Supreme Court finally moved back in. Previous to 1910 the Supreme Court was held in the Presbytere, then the Cabildo.
