Officials with Pigeon Forge broke ground on a new, $46.5 million fire and police headquarters building. Located next door to Pigeon Forge City Hall, the facility will serve as Pigeon Forge Fire Station No. 1 and a police headquarters and will also feature a firing range. The fire and police department headquarters are presently located in the city hall building, and officials said the new facility will give both departments a chance to grow alongside the city itself. The fire department section of the building will be opening in summer 2025 while the police side of the structure will open in summer 2026.
