OFD’s Pride of Parramore Part of Our Public Safety Efforts

Last updated on April 06, 2017

“The Pride of Parramore,” the Orlando Fire Department’s new Station 2, is now open. The state-of-the-art facility enhances station operations and provides new ways for our firefighters to protect and serve our community.

The men and women of the Orlando Fire Department are our everyday heroes. Those heroes working out of this new facility will utilize the latest in fire rescue technology.

With its red doors visible to the Parramore community, this new station will deliver top-rated services. Public safety will continue to be our number one priority as a city, so we make sure that our fire department has the tools, technology and training to keep our residents safe.

Services will be delivered by OFD’s newest piece of equipment, Heavy Rescue One, which will also call Station 2 home. This fire apparatus can assist in everything from high-angle rescues to aiding our dive team. Station 2 is also LEED-certified with energy-efficient lighting and the utilization of natural gas to reduce energy usage.

We are so proud of the new Pride of Parramore, which will help OFD continue to make Orlando one of the safest cities in the nation.

-Buddy Dyer, Mayor
