Completed in 2017, the station currently houses all Nanuet fire apparatus. The station was officially placed in service at 19:46 on July 24, 2017 and formally dedicated on October 15, 2017.

The station houses 8-1750, 8-75, 8-750, 8-EQ, 8-Patrol, 8-Patrol 2, and 8-SRV.

Prospect Street Firehouse (1946-2017)

The Nanuet Fire Department's main headquarters was previously located at 7 West Prospect Street in Nanuet, New York. The original portion of the building was constructed between 1944 - 1946 and had only 2 bays. For many years, the entire Nanuet Fire Department operated out of this building. In 1965 the first of many additions was put onto this firehouse. A wide 3-truck section was added to the west side of the building, followed a few years later in 1969 by a final large bay designed for Nanuet's first ladder truck (8-75). In 1978 the adjacent post office building was taken over and in the early 1990s converted into a final bay.

Old Middletown Road Firehouse (1911-1946)

The second firehouse was built in 1911 and was located on Old Middletown Rd near the intersection with Middletown Rd, just yards from the original firehouse. After the Nanuet Fire Engine Co. moved to the Prospect Street firehouse, this building was destroyed by fire in 1972.

Original Firehouse (1868-1911)

The original home of Nanuet Fire Engine Co. was built in 1868. It was located near the intersection of Middletown Rd. and Church St. in the vicinity of the present Nanuet Restaurant.
