On Wednesday morning, the city broke ground on Fire Station 75 near Wilson Boulevard and Firestone Road.
What makes this unusual is it’s in an older, established neighborhood. It’s an area where JFRD is very busy and has some of the highest incidents and run times in the city.
“These are in areas that are in desperate need of fire stations to get our men and women in those areas to help shorten response times,” said JFRD Chief Keith Powers.
