Located on a 10-acre tract, the designed space accomodates U.S. Customs, Immigration and the monitoring of pedestrian flow and truck transportaion. The 1,200 SF main buidling provides for the primary pedestrian flow between Matamoras and Brownsville. The building is protected by bullet-resistant glass and barriers and also houses administrative and active public spaces for INS, GSA, ATF and customs. The adjacent 20,000 SF vehicular canopy allows for covered inspection areas.
