Houston Police Department Station at IAH Airport
Houston Airport System / Houston Police Department
Understanding the Challenge
The Houston Police Department required a new, purpose-built facility at George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) to modernize operations, improve accessibility, and support increased passenger and airside activity. The project involved constructing a 25,000-square-foot building at an offsite location, relocating police operations from Terminal B, and developing a new HPD Storefront in Terminal A. The complex scope also included the installation of new water and sanitary utilities, a 250-space asphalt parking lot, a 24/7 backup generator, and a 5,000-foot technology duct bank to connect to existing infrastructure. The challenge was to execute all work within active airport operations while maintaining coordination with multiple stakeholders, including the Houston Airport System, United Airlines, and CenterPoint Energy.
