Downtown Plain Dealer building to become Cleveland police headquarters
The city of Cleveland intends to move its police headquarters into the building that houses cleveland.com and was once home to The Plain Dealer.
Mayor Frank Jackson, in a Monday interview with cleveland.com, said the new location will be more cost effective than the current headquarters at the Justice Center complex downtown. It will allow improvements to technology and space to consolidate offices that now are scattered around the city.
The project is a $59.5 million deal that includes the purchase and alteration of the building at 1801 Superior Ave. The package includes a $19.5 million purchase agreement for the site, with some negotiating still to come.
