Brockton Public Safety Complex

This sleek and technology-driven building replaces the City of Brockton’s outdated police station and historic fire station, serving as a beacon of safety and security for the community. At an expansive 149,275 SF and spanning four stories, the new public safety complex houses the operations of both the Brockton Police Department and the Brockton Fire Department. It also features a joint emergency dispatch center, administrative and support offices for the Brockton Emergency Management Agency, and offices and an equipment room for the Brockton Information Technology Center. To accommodate the needs of the police department, the complex includes a parking garage that can hold up to 300 vehicles. Public lobby space is available on each floor, providing easy access to services and information for the community.

Construction began following the demolition of the old building at the corner of West Elm Street and Warren Avenue, which had served as various institutions over the years, including Old Brockton High School, Eldon B. Keith School, Frederick Douglass Academy, and Champion School. The new facility re-purposes some of the building’s pillars and other infrastructure elements, adding a sense of history to the modern structure.

As the Owner's Project Manager (OPM) for the City of Brockton, CHA has been intimately involved in every aspect of this project, including designer selection, space needs assessment, program development, site evaluation, and cost estimates.
