The Redwood City, CA-based builder will be constructing a 6,246-sf fire station and remodeling and expanding three others, boosting the redos to 7,856 sf each. "The firemen are really excited about this getting started," Scott Rolen, DPR superintendent, tells GlobeSt.com.

Rolen says all work will be done simultaneously while keeping the airport authority's Department of Public Safety up and running as usual. The building project wraps up in April 2002. He estimates that DPR will have a crew of 75 to 100 on site for the firm's first DFW airport project.

The building project will deliver kitchen, fitness and sleeping facilities to the three-shift DPS operation.

HT&T Architects have designed the new DPS structure and the remodeling of the other three.
