|||||||||||||||||||||||
| Description |
English: Seattle's two main fire stations burned during the Great Fire of 1889. After the fire, the department built a new brick headquarters building on Columbia Street between Sixth and Seventh Avenues. The department also replaced their volunteer firemen with professionals, upgraded the alarm system, and bought new fire-fighting equipment.
This 1911 photo shows Seattle's fire department headquarters. Firemen, fire engines, and the chief's wagon stand in the doorways.
