Hampton Fire Station No. 11
Square Footage
14,500
Project Description
The City of Hampton selected the local firm ACA Architects and Stewart-Cooper-Newell Architects to design their first new fire station in almost 25 years. Serving the city’s northwest quadrant, the facility includes three drive-through apparatus bays (this was reduced from the original scope of four bays, during design), six individual sleep rooms, and a large Emergency Operations Center (EOC) / training room. This station is certified LEED Silver.
The EOC training room is designed to be used in conjunction with a future, 911/311/EOC facility that will eventually be constructed on a site adjacent to the new Fire Station. ACA Architects and Stewart-Cooper-Newell were originally awarded the 911/311/EOC Facility design as well; however, the City of Hampton chose to move that facility into a future project phase.
The City leaders requested that this station be designed with the aesthetic in mind of Stewart-Cooper-Newell’s design of a prototype Hilton Head Island Fire Station. (That project, completed in 2003, had received a Gold Award from Fire Chief magazine’s annual Station Style competition.) Similarly to Hilton Head Island, Station 11’s structure has also been designed for hurricane resistance.
