Second Tompkins County Courthouse, also known as Old Courthouse, is a historic courthouse located at 121 E. Court Street in Ithaca in Tompkins County, New York. It is the oldest building still standing in the county.[2] It is a two-story, 57 feet by 75 feet rectangular building with a three-story tower. The building is built of red brick, covered with stucco, over a stone foundation. The tower contains a belfry with a pointed arch opening on each of the four sides. It was built in 1854 and has a notable open timber roof.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.[1] The Tompkins County Legislature meets in the building and calls it the Governor Daniel D. Tompkins Building.[2][4]
