City of Norwich

Fire Department Renovation and Expansion

Project Cost:
$3.3 million

The City hired Delaware to renovate the 100-year-old brick landmark, and to add a 7,000 square foot “apparatus bay” for the Fire Department’s ever-expanding fleet.  This project brought all of the City’s volunteer and career firefighters and support staff together in one central location for the first time in their history.  Delaware provided all of the planning, space utilization reviews, all civil, structural, electrical and mechanical engineering, site plan design, interior and exterior finishes and emergency system and communications system design. 

The completion of this $3.3 million renovation and expansion project was heralded by an impressive and emotional dedication ceremony, complete with a bag pipe parade and ceremonial “wetting down” of the building.
