Allentown Fire Department, old Goodwill No. 3




Allentown Fire Department, Goodwill No. 3, 22 South 8th Street, Allentown, Pa. Lehigh County. In 1870 four volunteer fire companies (American Hose, Goodwill, Columbia and Liberty) united to form the Allentown Fire Department. I find no history of when this station was established, built or closed. Although I did find reference that this station housed a steam fire engine and hose carriage. The AFD currently run out of 6 stations.
