Service Desk

The Central Services Building on St. Johns Street houses the Work Control Service Desk. This is the primary point of contact for state agencies requiring building repairs or services. While this office is primarily administrative and internal-facing, it also handles parking inquiries for the state complex. Visitors to the complex typically require identification and may be subject to security screening depending on the specific building they are entering. 👮‍♂️🅿️
