ICE agents and officers will share buildings with doctors, restaurants, and businesses. They’ll expand existing offices and move in with unrelated government agencies—at 801 Arch Street in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, for example, they’ll share space with the DMV.

A number of these locations are already offices occupied by ICE, now slated for expansion. But really, this is just a sampling of the hundreds of lease locations in the process of being awarded to ICE across the US.

In Alexandria, Louisiana, for example, ICE is moving into a building on 1201 3rd Street, located right in the city’s historic downtown center and a 16-minute drive from the Alexandria Staging Facility, where immigrants have been detained, transferred, and then deported.
