Building Information

Illustration #1

This shows the current jail and color codes the different renovations that have been done to the jail facility.  The last renovation ( the blue area in the picture) was completed in 2006 and cost $10 million. That renovation doubled the capacity of the jail.

Illistration #2

Illustration #2 shows the different levels of the jail and the City-County Government Center (the green). The courts are located on the second floor of the City-County Government Center. Defendants are taken from the jail to the courts through a series of halls. Again, the blue shows the area that was added in the last renovation.

Illustration #3

This illustration shows the proposed design of the Scott Rd (this is next to the County Hwy Department on Hickory Rd) “Justice Center.” Each of the orange areas is a jail “pod.” A pod contains 150 beds.  The facility would be 413,000 square feet.
