This model is based on Firehouse #3, built in 1912 that still proudly serves Gary, Indiana. It sits on the North East corner of 12th. Avenue and Roosevelt Street. This version is not an exact copy but the front facade is very similar to the original. Even though this is a very large kit, to make it an exact replica would make it far larger. A modeler with average skill will require about two weeks of evenings to complete this kit. It is a large 2 story building, measuring 28’ wide x 56’ deep and 37’ tall to the main roof and 57’ tall to the tip of the hose hanging tower.

NOTE: This kit comes in O scale with instructions to print in ANY smaller scale.
