This Fire House was opened October 20, 1892 and may have housed the volunteer company East L.A. Hose Company No. 2. When Hose 2 closed in 1895 the firemen were transferred to the newly formed Chemical Engine Company No. 3. In 1900 Chemical 3 closed and Hose Company No. 1 went into service. In 1929 Hose 1 closed and Engine Company No. 70 went into service.
