City of Redmond Transitions Teen Programs from Old 
Fire House  
 
REDMOND, WA  – Teen programs currently housed at the Old Fire  House Teen Center are 
transitioning to the Redmond Community Center at Marymoor Village and other city facilities. The 
transition will begin later this month,  and all programs are expected to be operational in their new 
locations by late April.  
The decision to relocate programming follows comprehensive facility assessments of the Old Fire  
House Teen Center. The building served the community well for 72 years but now faces substantial 
long-term structural challenges that go beyond routine maintenance. This proactive relocation allows 
the City to continue providing  teen services while the community considers options  for the building's 
future.  
"Relocating teen programs to other City facilities will allow us to safely maintain the same level of 
service and could create future opportunities for expanded services," said Mayor Angela Birney. 
"While we engage in a thoughtful process with City Council  and the community about the future of the 
Old Fire House Teen Center, we will continue to recognize the significance of this space to 
generations of Redmond residents and remain committed to honoring that legacy."  
The future of the Old Fire  House Teen Center building will be determined through a public process 
with City Council. This will include opportunities for community input and will honor the building's 
importance to the community . 
For more information on the transition, visit  redmond.gov/TeenServices . Beginning in April, the City 
will initiate a separate comprehensive engagement process with teens and the community to assess 
and enhance teen services across Redmond. Community members can visit the above webpage to 
learn more and submit questions or comments about the transition.
