"Minneapolis Firm Gets Contract Mille Lacs county business will be conducted in this $150,000 Bedford stone courthouse at Milaca after June 1, 1923. Since the county seat was removed from Princeton two years ago, county offices have been in the basement of the schoolhouse. Plans for the building, drawn by Croft & Boerner of Minneapolis, provide for carved stone trimming, marble stairs and terrazo floors. The contract has just been awarded to the J. A. McDonald Construction company, Minneapolis."

"Recent view Wikipedia description: The facade consists of Bedford limestone over reinforced concrete. A two-story entrance pavilion is topped with concrete "turnings" on the corners and a carved swag and wreath in the center. The windows are adorned with small balustraded balconies. The interior is finished with terrazzo floors and a Wright-inspired leaded glass skylight over the octagonal atrium. Marble steps rise from the front door to the first level and continue to the second floor. Red wood woodwork is used throughout the building."
