About
Assembly Row Fire Station is Somerville's first all-electric, fossil-fuel-free fire station and its first newly built firehouse in nearly 50 years. The project reframes the fire station not as a hardened industrial outpost, but as a high-performance workplace, a public-facing civic building, and a prototype for climate-aligned municipal infrastructure.
