This lot has been used for a fire station since 1855, when Central Station and Firemen’s Hall was erected and subsequently expanded four times between 1884 and 1908. By the early twentieth century, it was renamed Station No. 3. The original building was replaced by this one with the assistance of the Works Progress Administration (WPA). Red brick piers capped with limestone crenellation rhythmically mark the square-grid module of this building, which is a blend of Romanesque Revival and Art Deco.
