T he Newport News, Virginia, police headquarters opened to the public with a special dedication ceremony on

September 20, 2007. The facility boasts 65,874 sq. ft. and sits on 12 acres. The three-story main structure accommodates the administration, investigations, planning, training, and recruiting activities, as well as public information.

Stromberg Architectural Products was called in to provide a number of elements for this new construction. While the building was design to fit aesthetically well into the civic-minded surrounding, any police station will need to be constructed with high durability materials as such a place is not only host to the occasional “less than gracious guest,” but also must remain operational during the worst weather events.

Stromberg fabricated a variety of architectural accents for the building starting with the large pilasters, portico and rooftop arches that make the most visible statement. Stromberg’s contributions continue with columns, window headers, cornice and a smaller side entryway to match the style the larger portico in front.
