Project Overview
The Fire Headquarters, Training, and Operations Facility represents a significant consolidation effort that will bring together essential functions, including the Emergency Operations Center (EOC), Dispatch, Fire Response, Fire Rescue, Water Rescue, Fire Headquarters, and training services under a single roof.
This 48,000 sq. ft. facility serves as a post-disaster hub, fortified with backup systems and emergency protocols designed to provide continual emergency services to the North Vancouver community. It exceeds both Federal and BC standards in terms of seismic preparedness, post-disaster response, energy efficiency, and greenhouse gas (GHG) performance.
The building is constructed with heavy timber and locally sourced stone, embracing LEED®, passive house, and passive solar design principles to meet specific energy objectives. It is also designated as a Net Zero Carbon building, benefiting from solar panels to power its lighting systems.
