Many of the structures in the Square are judicial buildings, owned by either the federal or local government, as was originally planned in the early history of the neighborhood. The neighborhood includes additional judicial and municipal buildings, commercial buildings, residential properties, and a church. South of the Square is [[John Marshall Park]], which provides nearby workers a place to gather. Two buildings to the west of the park are the [[Embassy of Canada, Washington, D.C.|Embassy of Canada]] and the former [[Newseum]], both of which are modern structures.<ref name=nom/>

Additional modern structures in the neighborhood include the Judiciary Square station entrance, the [[National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial]] and associated [[National Law Enforcement Museum]], the [[H. Carl Moultrie Courthouse]], Engine Company No. 2, John Marshall Park and its statues, and the [[National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine]], although it incorporates the façades of several historic buildings.<ref name=nom/>
