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 was demolished in 2025 as part of Blackpool's 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 was carried out in summer 2025.

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 August 11, 2025, it was reclassified in the online database from red (endangered) to black (demolished).
