Thanks you your photos are great keep posting.



IMPORTANT:

This building opened in 1910 as the Kansas City Fire Insurance Patrol until 1954 when the city took over the station and moved FH10 Engine 10, Truck 3 into this building. KCFD did however always provide the manpower for the Insurance Patrol. It was decommisoned in 1979 when the current 10's opened at 9th and The Paso. From 1979 until 1990 it was the city garage sale barn. Then in 1990 we starting using it as the Fire Mesuem and recently moved into Union Station. This building is being torn down to make way for a park. The current City Adminstratior does not want a Fire Mesuem in his park nor does he really like the fire department.
