The Willamette Station viewed from the front.
West Linn’s new Willamette Station (Station 59) is now completely framed and workers are beginning to lay bricks on the exterior of the building. Crews have installed windows and it’s starting to become obvious how well the new station will blend in to West Linn’s Willamette Falls Drive. TVF&R expects Station 59 to be ready for occupancy by next February.
Station 53 is almost completely framed.
Across town the Progress Station (Station 53) is well on its way to being framed as well. Both projects, plus the Bolton Station in West Linn, are being built by CSI Construction. Bundling the three projects with a single contractor provided a $1.2 million savings. TVF&R expects to open Station 53 next spring.
In November 2006, 68.6% of voters approved a $77.5 million general obligation bond for capital improvements. The projects funded by this bond are occurring throughout our entire service area and are expected to improve and maintain our response to emergency incidents over the next 20 years.
