Date Built	2010
Location	Newbold Terrace
Description
HLM describe this Justice Centre as a landmark civic facility that will, "... significantly contribute to the urban fabric of the town, raising expectations and aspirations for future public buildings. With its naturally lit internal garden courtyards, the building successfully manages the transition from the public to the private domain." The "aaprojects.co.uk" website explains that the goal was to bring together all the different agencies in one interconnected building, "... (it) encompasses both new build and refurbishment works with a total construction spend of £32 million. The Phase 2 new build works (involved) the construction of a five-storey building with police sector and district stations, civil, magistrate and crown courts with accompanying custody facilities and offices for the justice agencies. The final Phase 3 refurbishment works brought the existing police custody suite up to present day design standards and linked the two buildings into one."
