Lorain firefighters are helping to make Garfield Park next to Station 4 a little more like Station 4, reports news5cleveland.com.

Shortly after the facility was built in 2019, city officials approved grant money to add to the park, which had just a swing set, according to the report.

Soon the park will boast a fire truck, a fire pole, and an interactive fire control board.

Next year will see the park get phase 2 of the project, which will include a parking lot, picnic tables, and grills, the report says.
