Central Greenwich Fire House

The Greenwich Preservation Trust led an effort with the support of Greenwich Citizens, the offices of the State Historic Preservation Trust and the State Historic Preservation office but was unable to convince the Town to preserve or adaptively Re-use the 1938 Art Deco Central Firehouse.  Despite receiving Zoning Bonuses for preserving the original building, the Town decided to demolish it and build a facsimile of the building that will require re-using many of the demolished building's components.

We are saddened by the Town's decision which is a poor substitute for Actual historic preservation. We continue to work to promote Historic Building designation for Town, as well as privately owned Historic Resources.
