History
Originally constructed in 1929, the United States Post Office and Court House is one of the most significant architectural buildings in the state of Texas and is a registered historic national landmark. Built as the largest federal building in the South, significant entities housed onsite included not only the U.S. Postal Service and Federal Court System but also the Department of Justice and the Internal Revenue Service among many others.

Since Todd Interests’ acquisition of the building in 2007, 400 North Ervay underwent a total renovation, restoration, and repurposing that included the designation of the building as a local, state, and national historic landmark. The third floor amenity totaling 6,000 s.f. contains the well-known Sarah T. Hughes Federal courtroom, the U.S. District Tax Court, and the adjoining judges’ chambers, which have been converted and are now utilized as event spaces for all of life’s celebrations.
