For those who have concluded that Old Mahabalipuram Road lacks heritage structures that serve government agencies, the E-6 Thiruporur Police Station is a powerful retort. This building is in use, despite the E-6 Police Station having a spacious modern building right behind it. This heritage structure serves as the office of the Thiruporur Circle Inspector. So, we are planning minor repairs to the roof without changing the architectural character of the building. Of course, the Madras tiles will stay,” says G. Ramesh, Thiruporur Circle Inspector.
