The long planned new Gwinnett County Fire Station 13 is now under construction in Suwanee.
The new station, which replaces one that was closed in spring 2019 and converted into Stillfire Brewing, will be located at 105 Main St., which is on the rear driveway for the Suwanee library branch and a short distance from the old fire station.
