The 24/7 lobby of Arlington County, VA, Fire Department Fire Station 8 includes panels that are designed around the six community virtues that emerged from meetings that included members of the community. Artifacts that were donated by the Halls Hill community include a full dress uniform and photographs from family and department archives. An image of the original Halls Hill Volunteer Fire Department water tank aboard the back of its first engine was installed on the glass, so the community can see the fire station and members can see the community through the lens of history.
Katie Atwater tells how engaging residents and neighbors early in the design process for a new firehouse strengthened bonds between the department and the community.
