The Courthouse was repurposed as Ventura City Hall in 1972 and the original concrete Father Serra statue was designated as City of Ventura Historic Landmark No. 3 in 1974. As deterioration of the concrete statue became a concern, a wood replica was created and has been displayed in the atrium since 1988. The replica was used to create a mold from which a bronze cast was made and replaced the concrete statue in 1989.
