The redevelopment of the Nelson District Courthouse over 3,400m², included the new construction of three additional courtrooms, increased public waiting room areas, additional hearing rooms with video conferencing facilities, interview rooms, judicial chambers, court storage and technology services areas, cells and associated custodial facilities.

The project was carried out through a carefully staged strategy, with the Nelson District Courthouse remaining fully operational during its redevelopment. This was a challenging exercise in a working courthouse. The Minister of Courts at the time commented the building had undergone a spectacular transformation, and the redevelopment has been designed to meet the needs of Nelson city.
