Portsmouth’s New Police Station Estimate is $41.8 Million

The City Council got its first look this week at a new preliminary design for a renovated and expanded police station with a project price tag of $41.8 million.

The preliminary cost estimate to renovate the existing station at the City Hall campus and build a two-story addition is about $29 million lower than the $70 million-plus estimates the council received in December on a new station at several potential sites.
