The Franklin County Courthouse in Charleston was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Located at 607 East Main Street, the Franklin County Courthouse for the Southern District was constructed as a two-story structure fashioned in Classical Revival Style. The courthouse is a two-and-a-half-story red brick, rectangular building with a flat roof. The brick pilasters divide the building into bays and add dimension to its surface. The second-story fan windows soften the sharp design lines.
