The site is an active, private-use heliport officially known as the Broward County Sheriff's Office Heliport (FAA LID: FA83). It is located on the roof of the BSO Public Safety Building at 2601 W Broward Blvd, Fort Lauderdale. It is used exclusively by the Broward Sheriff's Office for official public safety and law enforcement helicopter operations.
This rooftop helipad is strategically located on the Broward Sheriff's Office (BSO) Public Safety Building. Since its establishment, it has served as a critical asset for the BSO Aviation Unit. Operations have consistently included launching and recovering helicopters for law enforcement patrol, airborne surveillance, search and rescue missions, tactical support for ground units, and rapid transport of personnel and equipment directly to and from the BSO headquarters.
Not applicable, as the facility is currently operational and was never closed.
