1458 Valencia Street - 2012

About This Item

Formerly a fire station, built in 1883, this is the City's oldest standing firehouse. In the heart of the Mission District, this rare brick firehouse in the Victorian Italianate style has a front surface made entirely of cast iron detail. Such buildings are very rare in San Francisco, with most clustered in the Jackson Square area. The firehouse was sold at the City's surplus property auction and is now privately owned.
