Grand Historic Firehouse on Beacon's Vibrant Main Street - Awaits Adaptive Reuse. Offered for sale for the first time, this stately and prominent 3-story historic firehouse commands attention in a central business location on Beacon's vibrant Main Street, presenting a unique opportunity for adaptive reuse. Constructed in 1911, the building's facade retains numerous original architectural details, including elegant arched doors and intricate brickwork and cornices, bestowing it with significant charm and character. The first level boasts soaring high ceilings and a spacious apparatus bay complete with vehicular doors at both the front and rear of the building, along with dedicated office spaces.
