Photo update - progress of construction of permanent Station 62 located off Old Cutler Road and 142nd Street

The Ground Breaking was held February 5, 2018.  Here is the status of the construction of Station 62.  Thank you Omar "OB" Blanco for the tour provided on Thursday, July 26, 2018.

The original estimate for completion was 400 days from start of construction.  There have been rain days (built in to the schedule).  The project currently remains on schedule. This will be the permanent home for Engine 62 once completed. Engine 62 currently operates out of temporary quarters next door to the new site.

This station is starting to take shape. The value to the life-safety of this area will be immeasurable.  The Palmetto Bay and Pinecrest Communities look forward to enhanced life-safety service in the area.  

Your life, or the life of a friend or loved one, might just be saved by service brought closer by this new station.
