Hoover Fire Station No. 10

Hoover Fire Station No. 10 is a fire station for the Hoover Fire Department located at 3537 Market Street in Ross Bridge. Prior to 2014, a fire truck was stored near the location to service the area. The land for the station was donated to Hoover by Ross Bridge's developer, Daniel Ross Bridge LLC. The Hoover City Council allowed a temporary station to be constructed in 2014 and it included a 20-by-50-foot bay that houses an aerial ladder truck and a double-wide modular building that served as living quarters and an office for the firefighters. The modular building included three bedrooms, a bathroom and a common area that included a kitchen, living room and desk for a computer. The permanent station was completed in 2015.
