Station 65 is one of the oldest fire stations in the District and serves the West Slope and Raleigh Hills neighborhood. Its response area includes Highways 26 and 217, both of which carry large volumes of traffic and commerce. The metro light rail line (MAX), Barnes Road transit centers, and the MAX light rail tunnel are also in Station 65's first response area.

Seismic upgrades will reinforce this facility, ensuring emergency response following a major earthquake and compliance with state law and local building codes. Expansion of apparatus bays, additional safety improvements including an interior sprinkler system, and provisions for female firefighters will also be made.
