Lawrence made some significant changes earlier this year. Engine 5 at Central House was decommissioned when a rescue pumper went in service as Squad 1 (Formerly Rescue Co 1). This resulted in the fire house at 311 Ames St being reopened after being vacant for many years. The apparatus and personnel from Engine 5 were reassigned here allowing Engine Co 8 to be resurrected.
