CNH Architects is honored to be awarded as the architect for Brooklyn Park’s Fire Station No. 2.

The station’s new location at 8600 Zane Ave is strategically chosen to accommodate the city’s projected population growth, which is expected to exceed 100,000 residents within the next seven years.

The existing fire station faces challenges due to its age, maintenance costs, and limitations in meeting the demands of modern fire and EMS response systems. In response, CNH Architects will design an advanced facility that addresses these issues and serves the Brooklyn Park Fire Department for the next 50 years.

Because of the years working together while evaluating all four fire station facilities, CNH Architects is familiar with the Brooklyn Park Fire Department and the specific goals of Fire Station No. 2.

We look forward to continuing this relationship in order to provide a fire station design that maximizes firefighter health and wellness, provides for a broad Emergency Operations Center, acts as the administrative headquarters for the department, supports the expanded apparatus requirements, incorporates firefighter training features, and provides for a flexible, relaxing residence environment.

Upon completion, personnel and apparatus will transition seamlessly to the new fire station, ensuring uninterrupted service to the community

The proposed station will include:

• seven apparatus bays
• a public lobby and historical component
• administrative conference rooms
• Emergency Operations Center (EOC) capabilities
• training rooms with breakout options
• offices
• living area
• kitchen
• locker rooms
• fitness rooms
• dorm rooms
• training tower/multiple purpose training opportunities as part of the design
• storage areas
• hot zone separation/transition with decontamination and PPE storage
