Kananaskis Emergency Service Centre

Clark Builders was the general contractor for the new Kananaskis Emergency Services Centre and demolition of the old structure.

The 32,485 sq.ft. facility is home to 24-hour dispatch operations that will support emergency response in the Kananaskis region. The facility features four bays for fire department apparatuses such as fire trucks and ladder trucks, a dormitory space, and a four-storey tall training tower for firefighter training in full gear.

The building’s exterior is expressed with a mountain theme and has an architecturally pleasing palette of stone, cladding, and glass. Landscaping is intentionally rugged to blend naturally into the mountain landscape. This project followed LEED® practices; however, it did not target LEED® certification.
