The second White Pine County Courthouse is pictured on the left. County offices were moved to the New Court house above when it was completed in 1909 and not long afterwards the building was used to house the County Hospital.  The addition to the right was added to expand the County Hospital.  The whole structure is now used for county offices that can not fit into the present court house.  Art work is courtesy of Mark Henderson.
