Franklin County Detention Center

Union, Missouri

  • Justice
  • Jails and Prisons

Elevatus Architecture worked with lead architect FGM Architects on a commissioned project in the County of Franklin, Missouri to work with the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office. Elevatus Architecture served as the Detention Expert/architect and assisted in the needs of the addition and renovation of this center’s floor plan.

This project was initiated to complete a space needs and feasibility assessment of the existing Public Safety campus on Highway V in Union, Missouri.

In an effort to reduce overcrowding, this project brought a challenge of having it be a live site where the jail was still operating with inmates inside.

The 57,500 sq. ft. adult detention center build-out is forecasted to accommodate 244 long-term inmates; 22 medical/temporary inmates; and 40 weekender/work release inmates. A future phase for the jail would add program and recreation space, and accommodate an additional 185 inmates in several classifications.

The increased area and improvements of efficiencies was led by completing perimeter and interior surveillance system and electronic access control system.

FGM designed the shell of the detention center and also designed renovation needs to dispatch, EOC, and the 911 Center.

Rock blasting at the Lawrence County Public Safety & Services Center project in Deadwood, South Dakota! 

The sanitary sewer line entered the new building from the north, which was located at the very right of the screen. During excavation, rock was encountered underground. At the same time, more rock was discovered where other underground utilities were to enter the building from the west. The best option for the construction to continue in an efficient manner was to blast the rock out of the ground. The contractor laid out a plan for blasting that would take care of both problems.

We're glad to be working with Construction Manager RCS Construction on this new facility!

"Elevatus not only understands the higher education market place, they understand our university needs comprehensively. They are able to convert learning modalities and educational pedagogies into physical, durable locations within our buildings that serve faculties and students in an excellent fashion.”

Arthur E. Snyder, Ed.D.

Past President, Indiana Tech

"The level of service that Fort Wayne Community Schools received during the construction of New Tech Academy was superb. The architects were innovative and took the time to truly understand the different learning modalities that we wanted. They always gave close attention to details, schedule, and construction costs."

Liz Bryan

Director, New Tech Academy Wayne High School

"Sanilac County has continuously relied on Elevatus for their expertise and dedication to quality of service, and I have actively worked with them in the planning stages of our renovation and jail expansion project. I give my full recommendation for Elevatus for design and construction on building projects."

Garry M. Biniecki

Sheriff, Sanilac County

"I want to express my appreciation to the customer-oriented Elevatus for a job well done on our penitentiary at Terre Haute. Their incorporation of many complex design modifications to the Central Utility Plant without falling a single day behind schedule was particularly impressive. I look forward to the possibility of working on future projects with them."

Clifton L. Spence, III

Senior Project Manager, Department of Justice Federal Bureau of Prisons, Washington, DC

"We chose Elevatus for our team on The Northeast Indiana Regional Public Safety Academy because of their extensive national experience in public safety, green, and educational facility design. Their role was critical in creating a building that was highly functional, energy-efficient, and striking in appearance. Elevatus receives my highest recommendation.”

Graham Richard

Mayor, 2000-2007, Fort Wayne, Indiana

"My experience with Elevatus has been excellent. I actively worked with them during the planning stages of rehabilitating an existing structure into a work release center, constructing a new jail facility, and expanding our existing Justice Building. They were always willing to listen to concerns and were sensitive to the county’s conservative spending sensitivity to the county’s conservative fiscal spending."

Ronald J. Robinson
