Lansing Fire Department
The Lansing Fire Department is undertaking a once-in-a-generation modernization effort as part of the Lansing Public Safety Project. Outdated facilities are being replaced with new, state-of-the-art fire stations, executive offices, and training facilities.

For the community, these upgrades mean faster response times, safer neighborhoods, and access to better-trained first responders. For the department, it means modern work environments that meet today’s safety codes, flexible building designs that support future needs, and consolidated facilities that improve coordination. For the City of Lansing, the investment ensures long-term efficiency, reduced maintenance costs, and the ability to attract and retain the best public safety professionals.

Update
Here you will find an update to Station 2 Construction
Fire Station 9
The new Fire Station 9 replaces the former station on Cedar Street. By consolidating and redeveloping the site, the new station offers expanded capabilities, modernized equipment bays, and updated safety systems. Its strategic location improves coverage and reduces response times across the city.
Fire Station 2
Located on North Grand River Avenue, Fire Station 2 is being completely rebuilt rather than renovated. This approach provides the department with a flexible, future-proof facility designed for maximum efficiency. The new building supports today’s needs while allowing adaptability for growth and evolving public safety requirements.
