Lubbock’s Fire Station No. 16 is a multi-company station with three drive-thru bays staging the engine, ladder, and battalion vehicles. It also houses an exercise room with rubber athletic flooring, polished concrete floors, and individual dorm-style rooms. As part of rapid response efforts, high-speed coiling doors were utilized for faster response times. The greatest distance from any point in this facility to the apparatus bay is 85 feet. All site paving is concrete, and the building is a load-bearing CMU with brick veneer. A TPO roof system was used on the flat roofs and a metal standing seam roof was on the pitched roofs.
