The $63.6 million facility will be built on vacant land between Baron Hirsch and Hillside cemeteries and Wilcox Street, across from the ShopRite shopping plaza on Richmond Avenue. It will not only be the first new precinct in the borough since 1962 -- when the population of the Island was less than half it is now -- it will also be the city’s first “green” precinct, with a host of energy-saving and environmentally-friendly features. The fourth precinct will be carved out of an area currently covered by the 122nd and 120th precincts on the West Shore, including Travis, Bulls Head, Westerleigh, Port Richmond, Elm Park, Graniteville, Mariners Harbor, Arlington and parts of New Springville.
The LEED silver building was designed with a dramatic cantilevered entrance by the noted modernist firm Rafael Viñoly Architects in 2013.
