a force of five volunteers, the first fire.station was -not -built
until 1907: Additional stations were added in 1915 and 1919 as
the City expanded, and Fire Station No. 4 was completed
eStatin 1923�4

times during its history, it was finally abandoned by the .Fire: {'

feet and is topped with a hipped roof covered with MlissioA tiles.
The building is of concrete block construction, and its exterior
walls are covered with textured stucco.
A one story arcaded porch, topped with a balustrade, is located
in the central three bays of the front facade. When constructed,
the main entrance was located in the central bay, with a round
arched garage door in each wing. In 1956 ,these garage doors
were altered. The north door was slightly enlarged and changed
from a round arch to a rectangular door topped with a plain lintel.
The south door
was plockedidowl, filled in with glass block, and
also topped
Most windows are wood frame double hung with 12 over 12 lights and
plain cement sills. 'The second story windows in each wing feature,
decorative balconettes with iron railings.
Fire Station No. 4 is decorated with quoins on each wing and a
deep molded cornice under the eaves.
A
In 1956, a large one story, one bay garage was added to the north
facade of the building. The addition was enlarged'to include a
second bay in 1968. The addition is topped with a flat parapet
building are -decorated with quoins. This
roof, and .the ends of the
lateral addition does not compromise the basic integrity of the;
building and serves as an extension of the original public service
function of the fire station.

;
Present nds-and Conditions:
The former Fire Station No. 4 building at 1000 S. Miami Avenue was _
abandoned by the Miami Fire Department in 1980 when a new facility
was opened several block away. The structure has since been vacant _
and is subject to vandalism and deterioration.
The site is located within an area planned for major high intensity
development expected to be stimulated by the Brickell Metrorail
station and the westward expansion of development from Brickell Avenue.
It is situated on a key intersection of a major arterial street, Miami
Avenue, and a local street, SW loth Street, which is expected to be the
major pedestrian and shuttle link between the Brickell office district
and the Metrorail station. Consequently, land values have escallated
dramatically, and numerous offers have been made to the City by
private investors seeking to develop the land.
Conservation Objectives:
The former Fire Station building should be preserved by the City, which
should maintain ownership and offer the structure for long term lease
for an adaptive reuse. This should provide an attractive opportunity
to investors interested in the 25% Rehabilitation Investment Tax Credit
for historic structures. The structure would thus be restored at no
cost to the City, and the City would benefit from long term lease
payments. Additionally, the City could transfer the residual development
rights from the site and recapture only additional value from the land.
The Brickell Station Area Design and Development Plan, adopted in 1980,
states this objective due to the important character and human scale
that the historic fire station would lend to the area once the area is
developed with massive -new structures. The plan also recommends that
SW loth Street be improved as a major pedestrian and shuttle route,
incorporating lively outdoor activity and retail uses along its edges.
Thus, the Fire Station No. 4 building, if adaptively reused, should
contain retail, restaurant, cultural, entertainment, or other people -
oriented uses to be compatible with the plan and zoning regulations
for properties abutting 10th Street.
Future plans for the DCM, Downtown Component of Metrorail ("people
mover) call for a leg connecting the Brickell Metrorail station with
the downtown DCM route. The proposed elevated guideway would be in the
loth Street right-of-way, with a station at Miami Avenue. The station
and guideway would have a major visual effect on the fire station
and may require demolition of the northernmost wing of the building.
These conservation objectives can best be achieved by maintaining the
present zoning of the property. An HC-1 zoning overlay district will
maintain the current zoning, requiring only the review of physical
changes to the property.
