Project Spotlight: The Good Will Fire Company
The autumn of 2003 saw Gorski Construction Co., Inc. constructing a new 19,000 square foot facility for the Good Will Fire Company. The multi-story building was designed to house Good Will's firefighting apparatus, as well as space for operations, support, dormitory and training requirements. After outgrowing the building they had occupied since 1885, the company forged ahead with bold plans to construct a new firehouse to better serve the community.
The new building was constructed on the existing footings of a former tank pad facility, thus reutilizing one of West Chester's most precious resources: land.

The new Good Will facility superstructure is a pre-engineered metal building by Butler Manufacturing Inc., and features Butler MR24 roofing, an attractive split-block and stucco finish, an elevator and even a fire pole! Construction of the new facility took less than five months.

The Good Will Fire Company turned to Gorski Construction to take them from conceptual design, through the land development process, state approvals, and into the construction phase after viewing the success of Gorski's other brownfield reclamation projects.
