This new $57 million state-of-the-art headquarters project consolidated the existing Michigan State Police Rockford post, the 6th district headquarters, and the Grand Rapids forensic science laboratory under one roof to increase efficiency and decrease the cost of maintaining outdated buildings.

The building features:

• Separate public, employee and receiving areas (for evidence deliveries and pickups);
• Emergency generator backup for the entire facility;
• Independent exhaust and ventilation systems to prevent cross-contamination of forensic evidence; and
• Segregated plumbing systems for domestic and forensic lab waste.
