Millers Point, fire station

This fire station is located along Kent Street, in the inner city suburb of Millers Point. This contemporary building wouldn't look out of place as a modern house in a leafy suburb.

  1. What a delightful building! I love the plants on the balcony. Looks like it could be made from lego.

  4. Visiting this station in 2017 brought back fond memories for me.Back in the 1950s I lived in one of two terraces adjoining the Glover cottages which was, back then, 130 Kent St. I believe they were owned by the Maritime Services Board. At the time I thought there was a fire station 2or 3 blocks south of my home but I haven’t been able to find any record of such. I have been searching for photos of the old station and my terrace for a few years now but, unfortunately, haven’t had any luck. As a youngster I used to talk to the firemen regularly, hence my interest in the former station.
