DC Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) Tactical Village

The District of Columbia’s Department of Real Estate Services (now DC DGS) solicited the development of a tactical village to be used by the Metropolitan Police Department's academy for training purposes.

Located at 4465 Blue Plains Drive, SW, the tactical village is a pre-engineered, metal building. Housed within the facility are four one- and two-story masonry structures intended to replicate an urban neighborhood setting and streetscapes for use in police training. Structurally speaking, each replicate structure functions as a separate, stand-alone building.

One of the interior buildings is dedicated to additional support rooms and classrooms. A separate building on the site was designed for gas mask training.
