Middlebury Police Station

Bread Loaf worked with the Town of Middlebury to design a new police department, gain voter approval of the proposal and construct the facility. The new 7,620 square foot building, sited at the former wastewater treatment plant, satisfies the complex police program requirements with a clear floor plan and a simple form.

The exterior material, scale and massing of the structure reflect the civic nature of the building while welcoming visitors and harmonizing with the surrounding neighborhood. The main entry, lobby and public meeting room are oriented to the primary approach from town. Conversely, operations and secure functions are located toward the rear of the facility.

Our partnership with Bread Loaf Corporation as our design-build firm was successful and exceeded all expectations. The building is the focal point of civic pride in Middlebury. The layout, design features and elements have become an example for other police agencies to emulate.
