Oakland Police Administration Building

Shah Kawasaki Architects (SKA) and law enforcement consultant McClaren, Wilson & Lawrie (MWL) completed needs assessment, programming, and conceptual site design for the City of Oakland to relocate all existing Police Department functions into a consolidated Police Administration Facility. SKA also assisted the City with site selection, finance strategy, real estate analysis, and implementation plan. The new Police Facility was designed with a “campus” atmosphere with three buildings creating a secured courtyard to support departmental health and wellness programs. The building program includes police administration, patrol/operations, crime lab, evidence storage, training, and firing range.
