Mitchell H. Cohen United States Courthouse, Federal courthouse in Camden, United States.
The Mitchell H. Cohen United States Courthouse is a federal building in Camden with seven stories housing twelve courtrooms for federal trials and hearings. The complex also contains administrative offices and support facilities needed to run the court system.
The courthouse opened in 1994 and was named after federal Judge Mitchell Harry Cohen in 1992. It serves the United States District Court for New Jersey.
The main gallery space houses Ben Shahn's Jersey Homesteads Mural, a striking artwork that was moved here from another location and now greets visitors as they pass through the building. This piece gives the courthouse a more human character than typical government buildings.
The courthouse has secure indoor parking and requires all visitors to pass through security screening. It is best to check ahead about restricted items and parking availability before your visit.
A 1999 connector bridge links the modern courthouse with the historic 1932 Post Office building next door. This physical connection brings together architecture from two very different time periods in one complex.
