Harker Heights Central Fire Station

The City of Harker Heights selected the MRB Group Architecture team to design an expansion and renovation of the existing Central Fire Station in Harker Heights to address substantial population growth within the city limits, the fire department’s operational staff, and Central Station specifically.

The renovations included a new kitchen, a larger dining area, eight individual sleeping rooms, four separate bathrooms, a new fitness center, and a new TV area with recliners. In addition, a study area that can be converted into an additional bedroom if needed gives the fire station staff the option to expand.

The design equipped the rooms with separate alarms for fire and EMS that will gradually increase in volume until a crew member wakes up, eliminating jolting them awake. The redesign and expansion of this station bring a 30-year-old building to current codes and updates the facility’s technology and functionality.
