Project Overview:
Located in the South Bronx across the street from St. Mary’s Park, the new NYPD 40th Precinct replaces a station house on 138th Street and creates a dedicated space for the community, areas for fitness, and training for officers.

Commissioned by the New York Department of Design & Construction, the Precinct features 45,000 sq ft spread across three stories and includes a new piece of city programming: the first-ever community meeting room in a New York City police precinct.
