SPRING HILL, Tenn.—After years of operating out of an outdated facility, the Spring Hill Police Department officially opened the doors earlier this year to its new headquarters—a 62,000-square-foot, purpose-built space designed to meet the evolving needs of law enforcement and the community it serves.
Located on Hathaway Boulevard, the two-story building marks a significant milestone for Spring Hill, Tenn. The $37.5 million project was led by Architects Design Group (ADG) in partnership with TMP Architecture, who provided local architectural support. Construction was completed by Hensel Phelps, a nationally recognized firm known for civic infrastructure.
The new facility consolidates operations previously spread across two separate buildings and offers a wide array of specialized spaces for training, collaboration, and public engagement. Officers now have access to dedicated areas for physical agility exercises, defensive tactics, and a firearms training simulator. A 60-person training room doubles as an Emergency Operations Center, engineered to withstand winds up to 250 miles per hour—ensuring resilience in crisis situations.
Beyond tactical readiness, the building emphasizes officer wellness and community connection. Lounge, break, and waiting areas are thoughtfully placed throughout the facility to provide respite and decompression. A covered public entry creates a welcoming atmosphere, while a 120-person community room serves dual roles as a courtroom and a venue for neighborhood meetings and civic events.
TMP Architecture worked closely with the City of Spring Hill to ensure the design met both current operational demands and future growth. Their collaboration resulted in a facility that not only enhances law enforcement capabilities but also strengthens ties with the community. The building includes hardened property and evidence processing areas that meet IAPE standards, a secure sallyport, and a dedicated interview suite—features that elevate both security and efficiency.
Mayor Matt Fitterer and Police Chief Don Brite led the ribbon-cutting ceremony on May 6, 2025, celebrating a new chapter in public safety for Spring Hill. The land for the headquarters was formerly owned by the Lund family, who sold it with the intention of benefiting the community—a gesture that underscores the spirit of collaboration behind the project.
With its modern amenities, robust infrastructure, and community-first design, the new Spring Hill Police Department headquarters stands as a testament to the city’s commitment to safety, service, and progress.
