The old Supreme Court which has housed the Legislative Council Chambers since 1985, was built on reclaimed land using hundreds of Chinese fir-tree piles as foundations. The building was opened on 15 January 1912 by the Governor, Sir Frederick Lugard. The two-storey granite building is neo-classical in style supported by tall Ionic columns. The most outstanding feature of the building is the pediment in the centre portion which is surmounted by a blind-folded statue of Justice, represented by the Greek goddess Themis.舊高等法院坐落於填海區，屋基由數以百計的杉樹樁組成，於1912年1月15日由當時總督盧押爵士宣告正式啟用。這座兩層高花崗石大樓，採用新古典主義派的建築風格，地面以愛奧尼亞式石柱環抱。最具特色的是中央部分的三角形山牆，山牆頂部矗立著一座希臘特彌斯女神蒙眼雕像，用以代表公義。建築物自1985年起用作立法會大樓。
