    This is the main entrance There is also an entrance on the right that is barely used. To avoid the long lines Use the side entrance on the right or on the Brooklyn Bridge Blvd side when lines are long

    Surprisingly pleasant jury duty. Strong wifi in public places and a stocked vending machine. Plus farmers market outside.

    That constant beeping sound from behind a closed door in the juror's lounge will not stop for the entire time you're here. Presumably it's been going on since the courthouse was built in 1846. Enjoy!

    The security line at 9-9:30 can be long. Better to come early or late. There's wifi in the assembly room.

    Sit in the back row of the jurors waiting room to get the best view of your fellow Americans struggling to comprehend the simplest instructions.

    If you're lucky enough to have an iPad, bring it. It will help the mind-numbing boringness you will experience here. Free wifi.

    Check out the awesome 80's ski soda machine in the lounge off of room 261. Frosty refreshment from a past decade!

    Order Chipotle (super close) via app prior to 1pm so you can pick up your order and skip the line during the court allotted lunch break of 1-2pm.

    Saw the man who maintains the hot drink machine take a pair of scissors and break up the hardened sugar and drink mix. He then wiped the scissors off with his hands. Yuk!

    On court day, enter through Adams Street to try to beat long security lines. Be prepared to wait a long time for an elevator. Not all floors have stair access.

    Food and drink are allowed in if you're serving jury duty, even during the selection process. Don't throw your iced coffee away.

    Wear light layers in the summer. Air conditioning can be unpredictable while you sit in the jury room. Goosebumps all day!

    Attention jury duty peeps. NO BODY wants to be here, you're not any more special than the rest. Bring a book, charge your phone, bring your laptop. (Wifi here). Its going to be a long and boring ride.
