• Lower level comprised of exercise rooms, two classrooms, a day room, laundry room, three two-story area wells, and men and women’s restrooms.

• The ground floor level includes four apparatus bays with turnout gear, hose dryer and equipment storage rooms, a station watch booth, public entry vestibule, day-room, Captains Office and Bedroom, Watch Bedroom, combined kitchen/dining room, 15 officer bedrooms, officer restrooms, and an EMS office. 

• Site improvements include heavy-duty concrete pavements and aprons, 38 parking spaces, landscaped lawn area, and the reorganization of wetlands from the westernmost undeveloped area of the site for future development.

• The Station will be the first in Columbus to address the occupational health of the firefighters, designing systems that remove contaminants before they enter the living quarters.
