Subdude Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 Restoration has begun on Fire Station No. 6, 1702 Washington Avenue. Houston 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIREhat Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 A marketing firm is restoring old Station 6 for use as its offices. This is the station on Washington closer to Houston than the current Station 6. Incidentally, the station used by 6's between this one and the present one is still standing as well. It's really nice to see this kind of attention to historical structures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The automobile is a 1974 or slightly later Ford Mustang II if that helps establish a date for the image. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbigtex56 Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 In a Fire Museum, do they put up signs saying "Please do not touch the fire"? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never saw any of those, but the Fire Museum in Midtown is worth a visit. Lots of old pictures and such. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
