SEE: Progress Continues At Canton FD Firehouse Site

CANTON, CT — Curious about how the Canton Volunteer Fire Department's new headquarters is coming along?

The Town of Canton Fire & EMS Services Department has some impressive, drone-level images that show just how the multi-million-dollar building project has evolved since ground was broken last summer.

The new facility is being built at 51 River Road in Collinsville and it will replace the current facility, which was built in 1971 and is considered old and antiquated.

The Canton Board of Selectmen voted on Jan. 25 to authorize Canton Chief Administrative Officer Robert Skinner to officially hire Bloomfield-based Millenium Builders to build the new facility at a cost "not to exceed $4.95 million."

In 2021, Canton voters approved the new firehouse project with a 2,061-834 vote during the November municipal elections that year.

On June 17, local and state dignitaries journeyed to Canton for the headquarters' groundbreaking ceremony.

Thanks to Sparrow Drone Aerial Services, the town now is able to offer up some nice, overhead images of the site.
