Seattle Fire Station No 24 – 5th Ave W & W Galer St

Station 24, 1910

In 1903, Seattle Fire Station No. 24 opened on Fifth Avenue West at West Galer Street near West Queen Anne Elementary School. Until the mid-1920s, the station housed fire companies using horse-drawn ladder and hose wagons. The building was remodeled in 1925 when the department bought motorized fire trucks. The station was closed in 1949 and subsequently demolished.
