Reno Courthouse and Lake House

Nevada Historical Society

The Washoe County Courthouse and the Lake House on the south bank of the Truckee River, at Virginia Street in Reno. The courthouse on the left was replaced with a newer courthouse in 1911. The Lake House was replaced with a newer Riverside Hotel in 1906 and then again in 1927 when the newer Riverside burned down. The Virginia Street Bridge at right was replaced a few times, most recently in 2016.
