Order an Image
When Fire Station No. 25 opened on First Hill in 1910, it housed the fire department's blacksmith and the city's first motorized hose wagon. Fire trucks replaced the last of the horse-drawn equipment in 1920. The building still stands at Harvard Avenue and East Union Street and was renovated into condominiums in the 1990s.

This 1912 photo shows three fire engines outside Fire Station No. 25.
