Fire Station No.3: 721 E. Rio Grande

Station 3 was rebuilt in September 1930. The station is a older, two story firehouse that still has firepoles used by the firefighters to get to the trucks quickly when they are upstairs. There are only four two-story fire stations remaining in El Paso. The station has three apparatus bays and houses Pumper 3, Ladder 3, and Rescue 3.

Pumper 3 is a 2001 Pierce 1500 gpm pumper
Ladder 3 is a 2004 Pierce 100 foot aerial unit
