Byrne said: “My office has been urging GSA to move forward on the construction of a new federal courthouse in downtown Mobile since early last year. Today’s announcement is certainly good news and a positive development in getting a new courthouse built. I will continue to work closely with GSA as the process moves forward to ensure the courthouse is a welcome addition to historic downtown Mobile.”
