Palm Coast's new Fire Station 22 is inching closer to completion.

The new Fire Station 22 will be located at the northeast corner of Palm Coast Parkway and Colbert Lane, just one third of a mile east of the current Fire Station 22 located next to the Palm Coast Community Center. The current Fire Station 22 was built in the 1970s and does not fit modern fire engines and needs expensive upgrades and repairs.

The new house will allow space for modern fire apparatus and will primarily serve Palm Harbor and other communities on the east side of the city, a Palm Coast Facebook post said. The new fire station will be 10,000 square feet in size. 

Construction for the project began in April 2025 as the city began clearing the land at 350 Palm Coast Parkway NE. The project is expected to cost around $9.7 million and has $3 million in grant funding from the American Rescue Plan Act that must be used be the end of 2026. 

According to the city's project progress website, the land was finished being cleared in May. As of the end of August, the cement walls of the fire station have gone vertical, and more of the interior is beginning to take shape, including the bays where the fire engines will be stored, the website said.
