March 2006 Telford,PA / Gainsville,GA: Oldcastle Precast Modular Group has been selected to provide the fully outfitted precast concrete prison cells for the new Hall County Detention Center in Gainesville, Georgia. The new 230,000 square foot, 1,066-bed facility, to be located on 50 acres off Baber Road in Gainesville, will cost approximately $54 million to construct.
