This station consists of a one-bay fire station and a medical clinic. The majority of the calls are medical responses, but the crews also supply standby coverage for special events being held at Canada Olympic Park, home of the 1988 Winter Olympics. This station serves the communities of Bowness and Montgomery.
"Station history
Station No. 15 is the former Bowness Town Hall, which at one time had a courtroom, judge's chambers and also housed the Bowness Police Department. The basement still has the original holding cells used by the police. The fire station opened when Bowness was annexed by The City of Calgary in 1964."
