Miller Hull

A first for the region, the new Fire Station 52 introduces San Diego’s first all-electric fire apparatus, setting a precedent in public safety and sustainable infrastructure. Designed by The Miller Hull Partnership and built by Level 10 Construction, the state-of-the-art facility aligns with the City’s Climate Action Plan, incorporating low-carbon systems and on-site renewable energy. The 14,500-square-foot station houses three apparatus bays and accommodates a crew of nine to eleven.

Strategically located between UC San Diego and surrounding residential and life sciences districts, the new station fills a critical service gap in the growing Torrey Pines region. The design is guided by three priorities: Simple Building Form, Firefighter Health & Response Time, and Authentic Community Connection & Fit—balancing functionality with civic and environmental responsibility.
