Shortly after forming, the CBVFD moved to a garage owned by Cliff Morris on Pleasure House Rd across the street from its current location. A 2 bay station was built in the late 40's on Lake Drive near where the current Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel (CBBT) Toll Plaza now stands. This building was adjacent to the Bayside Men's Club and Women's Club. In 1962 when the CBBT was built, the land that housed the station was used for the CBBT and land was granted adjacent to the CBBT for the fire station in the location where it now stands."
