Vermont State Police's new 10,000 square foot New Haven facility. Unlike the old space, they have conference rooms, a sally port, two holding cells, a state-of-the-art processing room, and ample office space for the officers, supervisors, detectives, the Vermont Firefighter's Association and Vermont Fish & Game staff. Also throughout the building is a video and audio surveillance system that not only covers all inside space but the outside area as well.

The idea for the building came up in 1979, was delayed for a number of reasons including legal challenges, and was finally completed in 2006. It was designed by Rebecca Arnold, of Arnold & Scangas in Colchester, in the "Vermont vernacular" style. The general contractor for the project was Professional Construction Management.

All of the modular office furnishings throughout were built by Vermont Offenders Work Program, a division of the Department of Corrections.

A formal dedication ceremony will be held on October 24th at 1:30 p.m. at the Route 7 facility.
