Boise Fire Training Center

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Filling a vital training need in Idaho’s capital, the 17-acre fire training center’s full buildout will include four live fire training structures, classroom building, support/apparatus building, various rescue training areas, outdoor fire props, and hazmat training area in a realistic streetscape. The $10M Phase 1 included the classroom building, support/apparatus building, Class A Residential Burn Building, and gas-fired, 5-story Commercial Tower that simulates retail, warehouse, apartment, hotel, and office occupancies. Planning and design for Phase 2 are now underway and EL&M is helping the A/E team with that effort.
