Many staffers have already moved into the newly renovated $280M Public Services Building at Broad and Callowhill streets, including the police commissioner and her deputies, detectives from several units, the Medical Examiner’s Office and the Police 6th and 9th Districts that cover portions of Center City. By summer, the 911 fire and police call center will eventually occupy what was once the newspapers' newsrooms with 1,200 personnel ultimately reporting to work at the building that was once colloquially known as the "Tower of Truth."
