U.S. Courthouse
, Cape Girardeau, MO

Architect: Fentress Bradburn Architects, Ltd., Denver
Acoustics: Shen Milsom & Wilke, Denver
Completion: Spring 2007
Size: 154,000 square feet

Acoustic standards for federal courthouses are strict, particularly when it comes to sound transmission. To help this project achieve its highly sustainable design, Shen Milsom & Wilke, working closely with Fentress Bradburn Architects, specified acoustic materials with 50 to 70 percent recycled content, formaldehyde-free fiberglass batts, and recycled fiberglass used behind fabric-wrapped panels in the courtrooms. We also specified locally sourced materials when possible.
