Title

Unidentified Fire Station? - c.1900

Description

This building was originally identified as the first fire station in Maynard that was build on Nason Street in 1892 and published incorrectly in the 1971 History of Maynard book. After comparing the picture with others of the actual Nason Street fire station it was determined to be a different structure. Not sure the building is in Maynard.

Update: October 2024
With assistance from Bill Cranshaw this building has been identified as the South Main Street Hose House for Attleboro, Massachusetts ca 1898.
We are contacting the local historical society there to see if they would like the photograph.
