The City of Lethbridge wanted to combine its very busy Fire Department with the Regional EOC, 911 call answering point, city-wide IT center, fire marshall fire headquarters, and city fitness facility in one location. Pacheco Ross Architects (PRA) teamed with a prominent local architect local consulting engineers to solve numerous challenges that came along with the integration of city departments. Designed as Green Globes Sustainable, an emphasis was placed on energy efficiency, daylighting, selecting sustainable materials, and regional sourcing. The project won the Fire Chief Gold Award in 2012.
