Held against a background of heavy equipment, this ceremony marks a point in the project that will begin with excavation to form the site where the new station will sit. Residents should start seeing significant progress in the area.
The Riverpark Station will house the administrative headquarters of the District. Also stationed at this location will be a structural and brush pumper, along with a fully staffed ALS ambulance.
