York Fire Station

The fire station has been in its current position on Clifford Street since 1938 and encompasses what was the old fire station as well as a chapel. But it's set to close and move to another part of the city, so this will no doubt become a historic picture in due course! - Lucy

A real traditional Fire Station. Lovely capture.

Red on rd good shot

[Therese]

Awesome capture!!! The red stands out so well!

A great shot. That red really stands out.

[Pyrrhula]

Great view of something soon will be the past history

[Malc Bird]

These sort of shots will only increase in value as time goes on. I'm a big fan of the old photos in the local paper that show buildings etc that are no longer there

[Ross]

Lovely shot of the old station Lucy:-)

[Hazel A]

Hope they find another use for the building. Our old fire station was demolished to make way for shops

[bkb in the city]

Nice shot. Do they have plans for the building after they move?

[Caren]

Great old building!

[Bob]

Nice shot Lucy of this classic structure.

@purplehaze12 Sadly a lot of places seem to be empty at the moment. I'm sure they'll find something for it. It would make a great dance studio if anyone could afford to do it up, it's a huge space and it's probably well equipped for pole dancing ;) - Lucy

@bkbinthecity Not sure they have plans yet, but hopefully it won't be empty for too long. - Lucy

[Ann Jones]

Red for danger! Good colour choice for a fire station! Good shot of a great old building!

[Evelyn]

Good shot! I'll have to show my husband this - he has set up his GPS - when driving and approaching a fire station the GPS device emits a trumpeting sound - makes me smile. Cheers to all firefighters - professionals and volunteers! :)

@pictureme Haha, brilliant! I suppose it makes people aware that emergency vehicles will be around, which has to be a good thing :) - Lucy
