Jamestown Fire Station

New Construction

Jamestown, Colorado

Jamestown Colorado was one of the hardest hit towns during the September 2013 floods; the small town of 300 lost 20% of their homes, 50% of the roads, both of their bridges, the water plant and the fire station.

After being selected as the Design-builder, Faurot Construction worked closely with Jamestown to develop their concept design into a building reflective of both the community and the resiliency of the town. The final design includes a 4-truck bay garage, office space and storage space above. The former brass fire pole was incorporated as a detail paying homage to the past.

Faurot Construction partnered with Workshop8, JVA, and Boulder Engineering under a Design/Build contract. JVA has designed the site so that water will properly drain around the building to the southeast, with a series of gabion walls on the northwestern edge which will block a large amount of future.
