Formerly Station 4, and closed circa 1973, a 1920's ALF engine was stationed there, along with Asheville's only 600 Series ALF, a 1941 65' aerial. At that time the road was two-lane, and the nose of the aerial had to be brought to the center line before turning in either direction. It was also quite a show to watch it backed into its bay, on the right. This & HQ were the only stations with poles, and the only remnant of the Gamewell alarm system, a repeater, is in this building, named the Harley Shuford Building, in honor of Asheville's first full-time arson investigator, who is a wonderful man. This station responded with HQ to all downtown first alarms, which contributed to its longevity, given that station 7 opened 9/11/58, one mile north. To the right of the station is the funeral home where I served my apprenticeship in 1968. Many's the time I heard the gongs. I listened with a tunable radio, which had no squelch control . . . and was privileged to join their ranks in 1984.

Annexed by Asheville in 1927, and now called Biltmore Village, an area just south of downtown Asheville, this is presumably their first fire station, but I don't know where it was built.
