LARIMER COUNTY JAIL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
Fort Collins, CO
The Larimer County Jail Improvement project is a multi-phase, 137,719 SF restorative justice project consisting of an expansion and renovation to the existing jail and accompanying facilities, all taking place within an occupied and operational correctional campus. Included is a new kitchen, laundry room, loading dock, central utility plant, three-story dormitory-style housing tower, two-story booking facility, officer training rooms, break room, and locker rooms.
The modifications also provided much needed upgrades to campus technology and security systems. Additionally, the new housing tower features centralized medical resources and promotes the intentional use of natural light to all three floors. The housing tower hosts various dwelling styles for the occupants including those with needs surrounding mental health or substance misuse. The new booking facility features a grand staircase that has been connected to the existing Sheriff’s Office building, providing the multidisciplinary campus a physical and metaphorical bridge between the Larimer County Sheriff’s Administration Office and the Larimer County Jail.
