FDNY Rescue Company 2 Receives a 2021 PCI Design Award

October 24, 2022/in News

SOURCE: PCI.org
DATE: July 28, 2021

In 2021, Boston Valley project FDNY Rescue Company 2 was granted the Design Award for Best Government & Public Building by the Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute (PCI). The 3-story fire station was designed by architect Studio Gang as a training facility to help firefighters prepare for a variety of rescue situations.

Precast concrete is punctuated by a series of openings and voids to accurately simulate emergency rescues in the urban environment. The station’s façade is accented by TerraClad® panels glazed in fire-engine red, manufactured by Boston Valley. Thanks to the combined precast structure and terra cotta façade, the building is highly durable as well as fire-resistant and thermally efficient.

FDNY Rescue Company 2 has proved a valuable addition to the Brooklyn area, both as a civic building and a functional workplace.
