Desiring comfort and durability, the team placed a strong focus on quality materials with low maintenance, functional layout and an appealing environment. The building was constructed with a load bearing NRG masonry system. Abundant windows provide natural light to a television lounge area and kitchen. The facility also features a weight room, ten bunkrooms, two Captain rooms, bathroom and shower areas, three apparatus bays, and a rain garden.

Split system air conditioning allows each firefighter to control their own temperature. Durable finishes complete the space making it ideal for easy maintenance.
