The nearly 20,400-square-foot firehouse located at the intersection of the state highway and Dr. Davies Road will be the 121-year-old department’s third building.

The station will have a four-door garage that will face northbound Route 9W, and an additional three doors that will be accessible through a rear entrance from Dr. Davies Drive.

Chief Burnette says this would be the fourth fire station named after a fallen firefighter in the city, and Wilson's family asked for this particular station.

"The family has a connection to the Oakley community," Burnette said. "They have a connection to that area and that firehouse. Since old Station 3 where he was working on that tragic day where he died was no longer available, they felt Station 9 would be a good place to honor Grady Wilson."

And while everyone has their own unique take on vanlife (this guy turned an ambulance into an adventuremobile), pro snowboarder Austin Smith has one of the more original approaches we’ve seen: He turned a 1953 GMC fire truck into his house on wheels.

"This is my fire truck, or 'micro dojo,'" Smith says in the video while describing his recent switch to living in the fire truck. "I've never lived in a vehicle before, I've never lived in a parking lot before, I wasn't sure if I would like it."

Capt. Michael Pruitt said the Durango lost control as it came out of a curve and struck the front left of the fire engine. The vehicle proceeded to strike a second northbound vehicle that had come to a stop for the fire engine.

Pruitt said the driver of the Durango did not stop and continued to 21st Street.
