Upstairs, the upper level’s bunk rooms, lounge, storage, and bathrooms will give way to a new kitchen, dining room, day room, three offices, a mechanical room, and two restrooms. No changes are planned for the existing apparatus bays, keeping the focus on optimizing the station’s living and support spaces.
