Station G at 665 Washington St. was opened in late 1899 and is still active today as Fire Station No. 7. It housed three companies: Hook and Ladder #1, Combination Company #4, and Steam Engine #2.

The tall fire fighter seated on the right is John F. (“Jack”) Norton who worked as a ladderman at the station between 1905 and 1908.
