The Columbia County Sheriff's Office in Florida recently awarded Dewberry a contract for architectural design services of its new jail.

The firm will develop a master site plan and provide construction plans and bid specifications for construction of the 384-bed jail, which will also be designed to accommodate a future expansion of 512 beds. The facility will include medical, administration, and ancillary support services.

Dewberry has had a strong presence in Florida supporting communities for more than 15 years and currently has more than 15 offices across the state.
