The Justice Building has had several lives.  In 1875 on this property set a Military Hospital but was later removed to permit construction of the Provincial Normal School. The School was destroyed by fire in 1929, but was rebuilt on the same site. The original annex, which survived the fire, later housed the model school.  When a new Teachers' College was built on the University of New Brunswick campus in 1965, the old building served as part of Fredericton High. After 1970, it was remodelled to house law courts and renamed the Justice Building.

The Fredericton Playhouse has provided the best in live performance for over four decades.  They offer an outstanding array of performances featuring artists from across Canada and around the world in virtually every genre.

NB Sports Hall of Fame is located in the old John Thurston Clark building in the Historic Garrison District.  This was constructed in 1881 as Fredericton's Post Office and Customs House, and later served as the Public Library, and then as the National Exhibition Centre. Since 1996, the Sports Hall of Fame has occupied the entire building.

The old City Hall - including the city office, council chamber, magistrate's office, jail, farmers market and opera house - was erected on Phoenix Square in 1876.  Mayor George F. Fenety donated his salary (c.1880) to initiate a fund-raising drive for a tower clock. Its eight-foot dials, copper hands and reliable chimes have been keeping downtown businesses and customers in line ever since.
