After the original No 1 wooden firehouse burned down, the town of Stinkwater Crik built this brick firehouse to replace it. Despite the murmurings of suspected arson, the devastating fire was chalked up to the theory that volunteers weren’t motivated to show up in time to extinguish the blaze, so the city also implemented the first paid fire fighter positions in the area. Cheers to progress!
This 2 story structure depicts a brick, single stall firehouse that was both functional and somewhat ornate and right at home anywhere from the 1900’s to present. The tower attached to the firehouse was used to hang the hoses up to dry and the living quarters on the second floor housed the on-duty firefighters. The slight wave in the bricks belies the rumors that Mickey, the local mason, spends way too much time at the local tavern. A small footprint and tons of character make this an ideal addition to any small town or city scene.
