Bankstown fire station's historical roots date back to 1913, when the council first inquired about the feasibility of establishing a fire brigade in Bankstown. However, it was not until 1916 that the first temporary station became operational. The station was fitted with a horsedrawn carriage and equipment for emergency calls, including a hand pump, a 1,000-foot harness, four scaling ladders, two

chemical extinguishers and a telephone. At that time the station was attended only by a captain and five firefighters who were on partial pay. In 1917 the fire brigade board purchased pre-existing premises and adapted them for its use as a fire station, and the Bankstown fire station is still at the same location. In 1972 the fire brigade board erected a new fire station on the existing site, completed in 1975.
