It is the county seat and contains the main government facilities, such as the Superior Courthouse, Civic Center, and other important services. Although the original courthouse is still standing, it provides limited government services, such as passports, marriage ceremonies, birth certificates, and passports. The Old Orange County Courthouse is also a museum that offers tours and tells the story of Orange County and the city. The Historic Downtown District of Santa Ana is roughly bound by Civic Center Drive and 1st Street. Ross and Spurgeon Streets are also included. The historic district was placed on the National Register of Historic Places (in 1984) and has seen a constant effort to maintain it. This makes it a great place for both residents and visitors to enjoy nightlife, shopping and dining.
