Downtown Houston fire station opens

12:52 PM CDT on Monday, April 21, 2008

KHOU.com staff report

Firefighters move in

HOUSTON -- Some firefighters are gearing up for their first night in a new fire station.

Station 8 is located in the 1900 block of Louisiana in downtown Houston. It's the only fire station downtown.

Construction started in September 2006, and Monday was move-in day.

The station's opening was delayed a few times due to rainy weather and the discovery of underground chemical storage tanks.
