DIA and Denver Fire Dept. Break Ground on Landside Fire Station
Denver International Airport and the Denver Fire Dept. broke ground in late August at the future site of Fire Station 35, located at 25365 E 75th Ave., near Jackson Gap and 75th Avenue. Expected to be complete in summer 2016, this will be the airport’s fifth fire station.
The contemporary-designed building will be approximately 18,000 sq ft with four large apparatus bays and an arced roof, resembling an airplane hangar. Metal panels on the façade will add texture that gives the building depth and different appearances throughout the day as sunshine and shadows create interesting visual effects.
