Balfour Beatty as part of the Design-Build team with Little Diversified Architectural Consulting, delivers the Town of Mooresville’s Police Headquarters in North Carolina. The completion signifies the success of the highly interactive and collaborative relationship between the town and the Design-Build team and partners, and their efforts in providing a centrally located and newly upgraded facility that allows for future expansion for the fast-growing community.
The new two-story, 50,000-square-foot building replaces the Mooresville’s existing headquarters, which houses the chief of police and police department. The facility includes collaborative spaces, exercise rooms, training room, bulk evidence storage, prisoner and vehicle processing areas, canine storage area, an emergency operations center and decompression areas for patrol staff.
Additionally, the police station features soft interview rooms, used in trauma informed care, that provides physically and emotionally safe environments for individuals being interviewed after difficult or traumatic events. Balfour Beatty’s local Connecting Women employee affinity group raised funds to purchase furniture, art, blankets and additional amenities to create rooms that added comfort and sensitivity for interviewees.
