YOUR COMMENTS:
>> ilovejolie86: "Glad to see ‘the boys' are taken care of! As a daughter of a fireman, I saw how bad the old stations were before they started to restore them. They definitely deserved it!"
>> danaco: "As a former fire dispatcher/supervisor, I too am glad to see the new stations. I agree with ilovejolie86, the old stations were horrible."I would love to see the City of Odessa preserve the old Central Station, though...maybe a fire museum to include old engines, equipment (fire/communications, photos, etc)."
