Site work, renovation and addition to a service station / car wash facility in New Britain, Connecticut. Conceptual plans call for the addition of a service station / car wash facility; and for the renovation of a service station / car wash facility.

The Fleet and Facilities Division(Mechanics/Maintenance Division) was built as part of the Fire Station 5 complex on Stanley Street in 1983. The building and equipment are 31 years old. Ladder 2 cannot fit in the building to be repaired. It cannot be effectively serviced due to building size limitations. The newest ladder apparatus will also not fit in the building on the overhead lift. The original in-ground lift cylinders have been repaired but never completely replaced. They leak hydraulic fluid and need replacement. This project expands the rear of the building and replaces all underground lift cylinder equipment. Since the concrete floor needs to be jackhammered out, the entire concrete floor will be replaced and the incorrect drainage pitch corrected. The internal configuration will be reconfigured into a modern efficient fleet repair and maintenance shop. Project cost includes building and equipment costs.
