Louisville Fire Protection District

Louisville, Colorado

Combined living rooms create a large new great room with a tremendous view to the Flatirons and the University of Colorado. The structural column previously in the demising wall was enhanced to make it a feature with the space. Custom detailed coved uplighting circumnavigates the perimeter of the room.

THIS project involves the addition of a 6,000 square foot, 5-bay apparatus garage to an existing 5,300 square foot, 2-bay drive-through station. A new second floor structure was added to the existing garage to provide for new offices and operational spaces below, and a training room and future dorm rooms above. Based on the fire district's program to incorporate passive solar features, all-glass garage doors were utilized in the new south-facing wall, as well as south-facing clerestory windows at the roof to capture the sun. Materials include a brick veneer to match existing, and a new standing-seam metal roof throughout to tie in visually with the city recreation center across the street, and to upgrade the roof both visually and functionally. Construction cost was $1,226,654.
