A comprehensive review of the site selection, funding, design, construction and operation of four new replacement fire stations for the City of Middletown Division of Fire, OH, completed in October 2025. This presentation will cover: the different strategies to consider when designing a multiple building replacement project, the advantages and disadvantages of using a design prototype station that is intended to be replicated multiple times, the benefits of using virtual reality as an effective tool to illustrate the design intent, and the strategies the city and fire department employed to gain public support to pass a funding levy. We'll cover site selection and procurement; tax levy funding strategies; architect selection; programming and design objectives; construction strategy; designing for response times, decon areas and firefighter wellbeing; and construction challenges and successes.
