The San Diego and Imperial Counties Chapter of the American Public Works Association recently named the domusstudio architecture-designed Encinitas Fire Station No. 3 as its Project of the Year.
The new fire station No. 3 was built by the city of Encinitas to replace the older station on the same site. The project involved demolishing the existing station while continuing to house and allow 24/7 access for firefighter personnel and equipment from a temporary trailer on the site.
