E. Romero Hose and Fire Company 155 Bridge St.; Built 1909
An original wood frame fire house was replaced by this brick building. Its banded piers capped by pressed metal "capitals" and its modest cornice with dentils (not brackets) make it Neo-Classical in style. The 1913 Sanborn insurance map notes for the building "2 horses owned by members, 25 volunteers, 1 paid man, 1500'- 2 1/2 cotton hose, 130' of ladder, 2 extinguishers."
