Located in central [[Richmond Hills]], the concrete and brick edifice of the old Wood Grove station is the product of an older, more prosperous time.  Named after the peaceful foliage of nearby Enwright Park and once an important feature of the suburb, the station found itself on the brink of closing its doors just prior to the Outbreak and Quarantine.  A declining local population and subsequent cutbacks in funding had placed it in a precarious position with a reduced staff and out of date equipment.  The proliferation of better appointed fire stations in the neighboring suburbs [[Eastonwood]] and [[Havercroft]] had all but rendered the Wood Grove station obsolete.
 
An accident involving an out of control vehicle during the early Outbreak ironically caused fire damage to portions of the first floor and much of the garage area; the scorched and rusting shell of a pump truck still rests in the ruins of one of the bays. For a time the station was truly abandoned.
 
Today, the now ruined garage and lower floor are typically barricaded with debris.  Safety can usually be found on the upper floors of the structure, providing excellent access to the rooftops of surrounding buildings.
 
Wood Grove Fire Station now serves as an important safe haven for survivors as well as a rallying point for returning Firefighters seeking to join back up with the Department.
 
Please '''do not''' over barricade this building! It should be maintained as an accessible safe house and [[free running]] [[entryway]], and as such the [[barricades]] should be maintained at Very Strongly (VS+2). See the [[Uniform Barricading Policy]] and [[Richmond Hills Barricade Plan]] for more details.

History

"Located in central Richmond Hills, the stone and brick edifice of the old Wood Grove station is the product of an older, more prosperous time. Named after the peaceful foliage of nearby Enwright Park and once an important feature of the suburb, the station found itself on the brink of closing its doors just prior to the Outbreak and Quarantine. A declining local population and subsequent cutbacks in funding had placed it in a precarious position with a reduced staff and out of date equipment. The proliferation of better appointed fire stations in the neighboring suburbs of Eastonwood and Havercroft had all but rendered the Wood Grove station obsolete. Today, however, the firehouse has discovered a renewed sense of purpose. Wood Grove Fire Station is now not only the Malton Fire Department headquarters for Richmond Hills, but it is the primary base of operations for the MFD as a whole."


Barricade Policy
