Crown Hill - Station 35 
About the Station Fire Station 35, located at 8729 15th Avenue NW, houses one engine company and a reserve engine. To meet current earthquake safety standards and accommodate today's modern equipment and firefighting operations, Fire Station 35 would require significant work. As a result, a new station is planned on the existing site. Design is nearly completed, with construction expected to begin in 2009. Station Improvements The architectural firm Rice, Fergus, Miller is designing the upgrade. The project scope includes:
Temporary Relocation During the station upgrade, the station will be relocated to an interim facility located at 9089 Holman Road. The temporary station will ensure continued fire and medic response to the neighborhood served by Fire Station 35. Current Status
