A History of Firefighting |
107 South Alfred Street Washington DC, VA 22314 +1 703 838 3891 http://oha.ci.alexandria.va.us/friendship/ |
Children and other fans of firefighters and their equipment will enjoy visiting Alexandria's oldest firehouse, built in 1871. The Friendship Fire Company itself pre dates the building by 100 years and is rumored to have been a pet project of George Washington's. Restored in the 1990s, the Firehouse offers visitors a look at the equipment used since the nation's founding. Also displayed are the clothes firefighters wore throughout this company's history. Special exhibits are often held. You can call for details. Review © 2009, Wcities |
