The City of Las Vegas Fire Station No. 3 project included the demolition and replacement of an existing fire station in Las Vegas, Nevada. The original station, built in 1980, was replaced with a new 14,800-square-foot state-of-the-art facility. The new fire station consists of four drive-through bays, 16 dorm rooms, command center offices, a commercial grade kitchen, a multimedia training room, and an exercise room. This is a specialty station which houses the City of Las Vegas’ Rescue, Engine, Hazardous Material (HAZMAT), Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear and Explosive (CBRNE), and Air Resource Units. Unique features of the project include a restored hose art sculpture, a mosaic tile art mural, large format graphics on the walls, a custom large format hand-painted mural of Las Vegas Fire and Rescue’s history across the overhead doors, and an apparatus bay doubling as an assembly area for formal presentation/training space. The assembly area includes a 12-foot drop screen, 8,000-lumen LED projector, loud speakers, and wireless microphones. The building was constructed using concrete masonry unit, ICF, and structural steel members. This facility achieved LEED Silver Certification from the U.S. Green Building Council and was delivered to the City of Las Vegas both on time and under budget.
