Fire Station 2, owned by the County was built in 1951 and is home to the LAFD Training Division. It is located on DP Road near the entrance from Trinity Drive, with access directly to DP Road. Converted from a response station in 1989, it is now used exclusively for ongoing training for our current staff as well as for new recruit academies. On the 1.25 acre property sits a 4-story concrete training tower and a 2-story station with 3 apparatus bays, living quarters, offices, and a training room. Also on the drill yard are a confined space rescue prop, ventilation props, a search and rescue facility, and a pump test pit. In 2011, LAFD completed construction of a Firefighter Practical Learning Center at which live fire burns and other practical training evolutions are conducted. The LAFD strives to achieve excellence through a well-qualified, confident and high performing work force.

Staffing consists of one Training Officer (Captain) who is able to back fill Monday through Friday in the event of a significant event that taxes resources
