too bad that whoever designed the firehouse didnt look to the other coast. the fire boat house that houses Boat 2 in LA is a beautiful house, and more importantly, houses the boat under shelter. cuts down on maintenance costs

Boston did a great job for their  marine unit firehouse The yuppies would kill for this location but would bitch on thr property taxes. You wanna live there, well you gotta pay there! Glad to see they got a great house, previous conditions were not exactly the best!!

Sorry, but from the outside, that house is as ugly as sin. It's nice on the inside. I've been to LAFD FS 112, and it is one of the nicest firehouses I have ever been in. Never mind walking out one door and BOOM, there's Boat 2. Boat 2 is pretty sweet as well.
