The Call is a mural of aluminum and cast glass on the façade of Fire Station 6. The artwork is inspired by the energy of the firefighters’ response to an emergency. Images of water and fire surge out of the mural alongside bolts of lightning – an early icon of the original Fire Station 6. The bolts are a symbol of the strength, speed and power that characterize the firefighters’ service to the community.
