Over the last 10 years or so, I've noticed a trend: Firehouses are getting more opulent.
The one on Tatum Boulevard in Paradise Valley looks like a resort. And Phoenix is no stranger to fancy firehouses: Just drive by the fairly new stations on 32nd south of Indian School, and Indian School near 20th Street.
I am definitely in favor of providing good equipment to our firefighters. What I don't like is excessive funds being devoted to make "pretty" fire stations. Really, they should all be standardized as possible to reduce design costs.
It would be really interesting to see the going rate for a fire station these days.
