The station was built with the Lancashire school prefab system named GRID. The system has been used to build stations in Skelmersdale, Morecambe, St. Helens, Preston and Wigan as well. These bulidings differ in the number of levels built, but are otherwise largely identical. Special thanks to Chris Dreier.

The Street Police Station is currently scheduled for demolition as part of Blackpool's ongoing redevelopment plans. Following the relocation of the police to a new facility, the brutalist structure has been closed in 2018 and has been vacant since then. In recent years, the site has faced issues with vandalism, antisocial behavior, and structural deterioration. The demolition was decided because it was too costly to repair the building. Demolition work was announced for fall 2024, but the building still appears to be standing in November 2024.

This building was included in the red list, published in our exhibition catalog SOS Brutalism: A Global Survey (September 2017). After a status review on November 12, 2024, it is still classified as red (endangered) in the online database.
