This New Public Safety Campus includes a main Administrative and Property Evidence building that is a three-story, 167,000sf structure built to 195 mph wind design criteria.
The Public Safety Complex is a multi-purpose facility developed in partnership with the City of Tallahassee and Leon County. An award-winning project (American Public Works Association and Associated Builders’ Building Contractors awards), the Leon County PSC is seen as a benchmark for how mission critical facilities can be consolidated and their functions seamlessly integrated to better serve the public.
This new 31,042sf facility allowed the Georgia Tech Police Department to replace obsolete police facilities, consolidate its units into one location, and modernize the police department’s functions, including updates to its emergency operations and forensics lab. The project required a significant amount of secure, outdoor, structured parking for patrol vehicles, utility trailers, and specialty vehicles.
The City of Venice’s current police station was first built in 1990 and this new facility will incorporate innovations to meet the modern needs of its community. In the 26 years since the station was built, public safety has taken even more responsibility in response to an increase in active shooter scenarios.
The existing Justice Center, originally completed in 1999, consists of a five-story building interconnected with a three-story building, totaling 197,131 GSF. The purpose of the project was to meet the needs of the county in the coming years through efficient designs and construction, along with technology.
This project consisted of a stand-alone three-story county courthouse of approximately 110,000 gross square feet situated on 19 acres on Avalon Boulevard in Milton. The building houses eight courtrooms, eight judge’s suites and all the necessary support services including a secure holding area for inmates, hearing rooms, a law library, evidence rooms, jury selection and jury deliberation spaces.
Built in 1953, the original Okaloosa County Courthouse was no longer able to keep up with the growth and demands of the community. Ajax led the Design-Build team to replace the original courthouse with a new 68,000 SF facility.
This project will consist of the brand-new construction of a 25,799 square foot, two story building hurricane hardened, federally funded Emergency Operations Center, located on the west end of Marathon Airport property. The elevated two-story cast in place concrete structure (over parking) will serve the Sheriff’s 911 Call Center, the Fire Rescue Administration, and other Emergency Management Facilities.
