Fire Station 75

Fire Station 75 was built in 1901. It was entirely demolished and rebuilt. Some 10 000 square feet of bricks, stones and apron walls dating from the initial construction of the fire station needed to be dismantled and reintegrated. The hose tower was over 100 years old and was given a new underpinning of the foundation.
