You maybe right. I am doing a proprty appraisal search and it says that the current building was built in 1960. It looks older than that though. Kinda looks like Old Station 21 in Buckhead. On Wikipedia it says this:



Kirkwood was incorporated as an independent municipality in 1899. Governed beginning in 1899 by its own city council and mayor, the town boasted its own water system, school systems and fire department. ...............



and this ................



In 1922, Kirkwood residents voted for annexation into the city of Atlanta.



???? I am confused i guess on the original Station 18 location.
