Torrey Pines Fire Station (City of San Diego Fire Station 52)

Situated southwest of the Genesee Ave / N. Torrey Pines Rd intersection, the new Fire Station will be positioned on a ~1-acre lot. The two-story, 10,500 sf building will be housed within SDFD’s Battalion 5. It will have three apparatus bays; sleeping rooms for nine personnel; a firefighter’s office; the battalion chief’s office; an exercise room; a kitchen; a ready room; and on-site parking. The proposed improvements to North Torrey Pines Road will include utility work, median realignment, and signal modifications to allow for northbound and southbound entrance and egress for fire apparatuses. Latitude 33 prepared feasibility exhibits and final civil engineering design for the site layout, and prepared grading plans, improvement plans, utility plans, median modification plans, and other facets of the unique and challenging redevelopment. The project broke ground October 2022 and is expected to be completed Mid-2024.
