Timing is everything—and for first responders, the stakes couldn’t be higher.

With an active railroad line separating thousands of homes from the nearest existing fire station, this created a significant challenge for the burgeoning towns of Fortville, McCordsville, and the rural areas of Vernon Township. They responded by forming a new fire territory that would benefit all and reached out to DELV to help design a brand-new station to protect citizens north of the railroad line. The new, modern station houses 10 bunk rooms, two pull-through apparatus bays and living quarters, all designed with durability and efficiency at the forefront.
