Emergency Operations Center
This architectural marvel isn’t just a building; it’s a strategic hub blending functionality with the latest in technology to enhance community service. At its core, it serves as both an Emergency Operations Center (EOC) and a crucial Communications/Dispatch (911) center.
But it doesn’t stop there. Housing the Citywide Data Center and the Property and Evidence Management Building, this headquarters boasts state-of-the-art technology and space-efficient storage solutions.
In times of crisis, its Training area transforms into emergency accommodations, ensuring seamless operations during the most challenging events. And speaking of challenges, the building stands tall against the fiercest forces of nature, built to withstand winds up to 195 mph.
Preparedness is key, which is why the facility is equipped with redundant services for water, sewer, and generator power. With this infrastructure in place, operations can continue uninterrupted for at least 72 hours, ensuring the safety and security of the community in times of crisis.
From its robust design to its unwavering commitment to service, the City of St. Petersburg’s new Police Headquarters stands as a beacon of resilience and innovation, ready to serve and protect for generations to come.
