The new Philadelphia Police Public Services Building is currently at 90% capacity and soon a total of 1,200 personnel will report to the former newspaper building. The renovation project carried a price tag of $252 million.
The 470,000-square-foot renovation was completed on time and within budget, project manager Andrew Brown tells 6ABC . The historic building, which was built in 1924, was the former home of both the Philadelphia Inquirer and the Daily News. The renovations began in January 2018 and were completed in December 2021.
