Additional Information: | The Town of Greenville Safety Building was constructed c.1969 shortly after the town decided stop sharing emergency services with the neighboring communities of Hortonville and Ellington. The one-story building is comprised of two sections: the seven fire truck and emergency medical services (EMS) bays on the east side and the office section on the west side. It has a rectangular footprint, is clad in a rusticated concrete brick veneer, features a flat roof with wide overhanging eaves, and rests on a concrete slab. An enclosed plate glass vestibule with modern plate glass entrance doors is centered on the front (north) facade. Windows are the original sliding. A c.1990 one-story, low-pitched side gable addition that houses fire trucks and emergency vehicles is attached to the side (east) elevation of the Safety Building. Memorial Square is a small park that honors veterans, firefighters, emergency medical services, and victims of September 11th located on the west side of the fire station. It was dedicated as a park in 2005 and features a brick walkway, formal landscaping, memorials, and picnic tables. |
