Station history
The original Station No. 4 was built in 1907 at 104 6A St. N.E. in Bridgeland, just west of the General Hospital. It stayed in operation until 1977, when the second Fire Station No. 4 opened at 16 Moncton Road N.E.
That building is now being used by Emergency Medical Services crews. The current station was opened in 2004.
