1. 1906

   San Francisco Fire Department Engine No. 35 was built here, a 1937 newspaper article quoting the department that the structure was put up in 1906 to serve only until a permanent house could be provided. The station carried a steamer hose wagon, a truck, a monitor battery and a hose tower.

   Built.

3. 1937

   Newspaper articles described the building as a ramshackle, barn-like structure whose floors were too rough and warped to cover with linoleum, condemned as entirely inadequate by the Central Council of Civic Clubs' committee on firehouses; an accompanying photograph showed the old hay loft still standing above a modern fire truck.
