Denver Fire Department

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us in celebrating 75 years of service at Station 23.
It was an incredible day spent reconnecting with current and retired members, families, friends, and community members who have helped shape the rich history of Station 23. Seeing generations of firefighters and neighbors come together to share stories, memories, and laughter was a powerful reminder of what makes this station so special.
Since opening its doors in 1951, Station 23 has proudly served the Denver community. The legacy built by those who came before us continues today through the dedication and commitment of the men and women who answer the call.
Thank you to everyone who attended, shared memories, helped organize the event, and supported the celebration. We are honored to be part of this community and grateful for the support we receive every day.
Here’s to 75 years of service, tradition, and community—and to the future generations who will continue that legacy.

On May 23, Denver Fire crews responded to a vehicle that crashed into a residence. Upon arrival, firefighters found a vehicle that had struck and entered the garage, causing significant structural damage to the home.
Crews worked to ensure the scene was safe, assisted with vehicle stabilization, and coordinated with building officials to evaluate the structural integrity of the residence. Specialized resources were requested to help shore and stabilize the damaged structure.
The driver was evaluated by EMS. No firefighter injuries were reported.
Incidents like this highlight the importance of a coordinated response between firefighters, EMS personnel, law enforcement, and building safety partners to protect both occupants and responders.
