Safety Rules: SOM Unveils the Home for New York’s Emergency Response Unit

Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP (SOM) has unveiled its newest project: a facility to house the Bronx’s 911 emergency response unit. Dubbed the Public Safety Answering Center II (or PSAC II for short), the 450,000 sq ft building is set to unite emergency response workers from multiple city agencies – such as the police and fire departments, and emergency medical services – in one single place that will act as a shining beacon of inter-agency cooperation.
