Join us for our first McHenry County History...
The city of Woodstock has begun the process for the acquisition, restoration, preservation and reuse of the historic old McHenry County Courthouse built in 1857. It is one of a few remaining pre-Civil War courthouse buildings in Illinois. The sheriff’s house was added in 1887. The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
The official “ Request for Proposals” and information about the property can be found here. The website also includes a link to a new 20-minute video about the property. Proposals must be submitted by May 1.
To receive a copy of the City’s full RFP, serious inquiries should be directed to nbaker@woodstockil.gov. Subject line should include “Request - Old Courthouse RFP.”
