Central Hose House, Idaho Springs, Colorado

I was going to do a Name That Station this week but I only have two ready to go. I promise next week will be the return so make it a point to stop back. Today's picture comes to you from Idaho Springs, Colorado and is the Central Hose House. Built in 1876 it looks like they are in the planning stages of renovating this old station and turning it into a fire museum. Here is the website of the Idaho Springs Historical Society. They mention it is one of three old firehouses in town, I posted Hose House Number Two last summer. I'll have to look for the third one sometime. Don't forget to stop back for Name that Station next Friday. I'll give you an easy one along with some tougher ones.
