Summary:

Architecture for rescue services has come a long way in the past decade. Buildings for police, fire and ambulance stations have lost their often purely functional and shed-like appearance and have begun to strive for recognition as an equitable architectural typology. This title shows eye-catching examples of emergency architecture.
