INDIAN LAND, SC (February 28, 2012) - Farley Associates, Inc., an Indian Land, SC based general contractor has been awarded the Bronze Station Style award from Fire Chief Magazine, the leading national fire department publication. The award was given to both Farley Associates, Inc. and Stewart-Cooper-Newell Architects for their design and build of the new Pleasant Valley Fire Station in Indian Land, SC.
A panel of architects and fire service executives reviewed each submission using rigorous criteria, including the architect's answers to program requirements, technical specifications, aesthetic characteristics and the builder's overall execution of the solution.
Pleasant Valley Fire Department is a volunteer organization that provides fire and rescue services to the northern most tip of Lancaster County, South Carolina. Currently, the station runs two engines, one ladder, one rescue, one brush truck, and one tanker. They have 30 volunteers that are trained in both fire fighting as well as rescue services. The new station required an adequate apparatus bay to accommodate the equipment. The station was also built with growth in mind to eventually accommodate more full time fire fighters.
Trey Farley, President of Farley Associates, Inc., said, “We are delighted to have been the General Contractor for this award-winning project. We believe it demonstrates how owners, architects and builders can work together to achieve an outstanding end result.”
