Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: As seen in June 2022, the Buffalo Fire Department's former Engine House No. 30 and Hook & Ladder No. 10 stands at 131 Southside Parkway (corner Mesmer Avenue) in Buffalo, New York. Built in 1907, this firehouse is one of three designed in the same era by city-employed architect Howard L. Beck in roughly the same Arts & Crafts style, with the same distinctive Flemish-inspired parapet gable crowning the façade. Note also the round-arched triple window on the gable - a rather out-of-place Romanesque-inspired element - as well as the keystone-studded splayed lintels above the first- and second-story windows. The side elevations each sport twin hip-roofed dormers. As evidenced by its long and narrow dimensions and the lack of an adjoining hose tower, the building was originally constructed as home of Hook and Ladder Company No. 10, which occupied the building until 1960. During its latter years as a firehouse, it served as temporary home to Engine No. 25, Squad 2 and B-46, and Engine No. 30 before the fire department finally sold the building in 1981. It has since been converted to apartments. |
