Spent a day with Engine 6 on a ride along a couple years back and got the grand tour of the new 4 house while in between calls. While a nice house, a few of the firefighters told me they'd move back to the old Station 4 in a heartbeat. They had hoped for the city to renovate the old house as opposed to electing to build a new one. Seemed to be tight quarters and tougher to get in and out. Look forward to the rest of the photos!
