A warehouse purchased by the Department of Homeland Security that is slated to become an immigration detention facility is seen on March 10, 2026 in Williamsport, Maryland. DHS spent $102.4 million earlier this year to buy the 830,000-square foot warehouse in an industrial park "to provide short-term housing for individuals in immigration custody awaiting immigration processing and related administrative procedures," according to a DHS notice.
