The main location is the Theodore Roosevelt United States Courthouse at 225 Cadman Plaza East in the civic center of Brooklyn. The 15-story building was designed by Cesar Pelli. The courthouse was designed in 1995 but did not open until 2006 following redesign requirements in the wake of the Oklahoma City bombing and the September 11 attacks. It replaced the six story Emanuel Celler Federal Building (built in 1962 and located next door and connected via glass atrium). In 2008 it was renamed for Theodore Roosevelt.{{cite news |url=http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/12/30/us-courthouse-is-named-for-theodore-roosevelt/ |work=The New York Times |title=U.S. Courthouse Is Named for Theodore Roosevelt |first=Jason |last=Grant |date=December 30, 2008}} The building was originally to be renamed in honor of former New York Governor Hugh Carey but politicians backed off because Carey was alive at the time. The associated prison is the Metropolitan Detention Center, Brooklyn.

The Divisional office is in the Alfonse M. D'Amato United States Courthouse in Central Islip, New York. The courthouse designed by Richard Meier opened in 2000 and is the largest building on Long Island.{{cite web|url=http://www.nyed.uscourts.gov/|title=Eastern District of New York - United States District Court|website=www.nyed.uscourts.gov}} The 12-story building has {{convert|870000|sqft|m2|sigfig=2}}, 23 courtrooms and 24 judges' chambers.{{cite web|url=http://www.emporis.com/application/?nav=building&id=134995|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130409031502/http://www.emporis.com/application/?nav=building&id=134995|url-status=usurped|archive-date=April 9, 2013|title=Long Island Federal Courthouse, Central Islip - 134995 - EMPORIS|first=Emporis|last=GmbH|website=Emporis}}
