Faulty sprinkler soaks office in criminal justice building

Chris Echegaray (Tennessean)• April 22, 2008 The criminal court clerk's office in downtown Nashville's A.A. Birch Building suffered water damage after a sprinkler head dropped four inches of water near the customer service area. They are open today. The leak in the six-story building at 408 2nd Ave. occurred just before 9 p.m. last night, said Tommy Bradley, chief administrative officer. Bradley is determining the damage. The state-of-the art $49 million criminal justice building was dedicated two years ago.
