The fire department had recently purchased a new auto-pumping combination wagon and fire station G, today’s Station 7, needed to upgrade the station to make the transition from horse-drawn equipment. The department was fortuitously offered the temporary use of the large garage of Mrs. Alice B Watson located on Salisbury Rd. behind her townhouse at 1710 Beacon St. Both are still standing.
