North Aurora Fire Station No. 1

The Featherstone Difference

The original station was constructed in 1963 to accommodate a small voluntary force, responding to a couple of hundred emergencies a year, protecting a community of 2500 people. The staff size and operational needs of the fire district have evolved and increased exponentially requiring several remodels and renovations to accommodate the ever-changing needs of the community and the firefighters serving out of Station No. 1. Now through a successful referendum, plans are well underway to build a new state–of–the art 27,000 sf fire house that will also serve as the fire district’s headquarters and community gathering facility.
