Description
"The newest and perhaps the handsomest building occupied by the (Fire) department is Hook and Ladder House No. 1, situated on the corner of the alley on Sixth Street, between K and L" is how the Sacramento Bee for April 19, 1890, described the building. The Fire Station at 1117 Sixth Street also housed Chemical Engine Company No. 1, trucks and equipment, and the horses that made the service work.
