Description

A view of the old Palmerston North police station from the corner of Church Street (east) and Ashley Street in front of St Andrews Church.

Between the end of July into October 2024, some existing structures on the site were cleared off the property by ARC, an asbestos removal and demolition company. Previously and afterwards, the unoccupied property has been used as a commercial parking space for many of the years since the 'new' police station down the road was opened in 2005. Possibly in an effort to keep the building looking less derelict, boards with a similar colour scheme to the exterior walls were installed on the Church Street facing exterior sometime prior to this demolition work.

The building has been classified as a new Zealand Historic Place Category 2 building since 2010.
