Fire Station No.12:
3801 Fort Blvd.
|
 |
Station 12 was completed September 1947, it is a territorial style that was very much in
style for the neighborhood at the time. It has been transformed
during the years. During the 90s, the beautiful Italian cypress
trees that adorned the north and south walls were removed
along with the educational botanical native plant island in
front of the station.
Today plans are in the works to again alter the tranquil
appearance by removing the turf and replacing it with gravel.
It houses a medic unit and pumper. A 1993 Pierce 1500 GPM.
The apparatus fits into the antiquated bay with only inches
to spare on either side, only major remodeling could give
it more space for comfort. The station is small and at times
overflowing with personnel, but the territory gives the pumper
crew a good work out with many residential fires. The medic
crew is constantly on the road relocating, wanting to be ahead
of the next medic unit for a call. There is much history and
may forgotten stories at this station, but is wonderful duty
for those that do not mind constant activity.
