The Vancouver Fire Hall No. 17 is the first fire hall in Canada to earn the Zero Carbon Building design certification by the Canada Green Building Council, and the first project to be certified in British Columbia. Designed by HCMA, it is one of 16 projects to pilot CaGBC’s new ZCB standard, which provides a process, performance targets, and tools to support low-carbon buildings in response to the climate crisis. When complete, it will offer a 99.7 per cent reduction in operational carbon emissions compared to the existing Fire Hall 17.
