Headquarters Station 1

The current Station 1 was built in 1992 replacing the fire house that was purchased in 1931. This building has many modern features including sleeping quarters for the volunteers and a command center for the City of Lewes for major emergencies. A museum room was added in 2007 to house our 1925 American LaFrance antique pumper along with displaying our history. The original Station 1 was in City Hall and located on West Third Street from the late 1800’s through 1931, currently housing an antique store.
