Metal Panels Add Assurance of Durability to Much Needed Fire Station
Located only 17 miles from the rapidly growing city of Chattanooga, Tennessee, the community of Soddy-Daisy, Tennessee, offers residents easy access to urban amenities and jobs while maintaining a close community feel. Among those small-town features is the local Mowbray Volunteer Fire Department, which provides emergency service and fire protection to about 3,000 people and more than 1,500 homes. Until recently, the department functioned with a facility that couldn’t even accommodate all its necessary equipment. The new station opens up the department to the surrounding community, both visually and literally, thanks to its substantial meeting space. It also features a classic design highlighted by metal roof panels and wall highlights that will help ease maintenance for decades to come.
