Hickory, North Carolina (January 2022) – The Morgan Companies (“Morgan”) is pleased to have donated buildings to the City of Hickory Fire Department for specialized, hands-on training.

Firefighters used the buildings for ventilation practice, forcible entry techniques, aerial operations, building construction design instruction, and rescue scenarios.

“The City of Hickory Fire Department would wish to extend a heartfelt thanks to The Morgan Companies…for the generous opportunity to make use of their structures for advanced firefighting training,” said Chief Matt Hutchinson. “The use of acquired structures for fire and rescue related training is invaluable and offers our department the chance to put previous training into practice in a real-world environment. This type of experience will only enhance our abilities to provide the ultimate level of protection to our citizens.”

Morgan plans to develop a commercial project on the property, with tenant announcements forthcoming.
