Just curious who has the oldest operating firehouse in Westchester?

Peekskill Cortlandt Hook & Ladder Sta. 1 was built in the early 1800's. Although, it was a regular house in those days. But was occupied by the company in 1831 I believe and added to. If anyone is up our way, stop in and check out our historical room, pics of when it was someone's home also many pics of past events and fires. Some of the material goes way back.

Senate H&L Co. (Ladder 41) quarters in Ossining located on Main St. was built in the 1860's-1880's. This house is also Steamer Co.'s (Eng.98's) house they are connected. They are technically underneath Senate but there meeting room is on the same level as Senate's Truck room. Speaking of which the New Ossining Headquarters on State St. is coming along. As everyone probably know's this will be Senate's new home Along with Rescue 14, there Rig is currently housed at Holla Hose's (Eng.100) quarters on the South Side.

Sleepy Hollow has an old house. Eng. 85 (Rescue Hose) still has Automatic Wooden Folding doors. Regardless I don't know how old but it definetly is up there.
