Sierra Madre Fire Station #2. Originally built in 1961 with a design by local architect Robert Ainsworth, this neighborhood fire station has been restored and converted into a one-of-a-kind live/work space. Having serviced the area until it was decommissioned by the city of Sierra Madre, it was later purchased by a private owner who completed the restoration into its current state in 2007. With its striking facade from the street, the interior is a clean and open space with a flexible floorplan for loft-like living with kitchen, full bathroom, storage and bedroom area. Much of the original fire station design remains with gorgeous concrete floors, original posts, 11-foot ceilings, skylight, and natural light from the front opaque door along with original lettering and lights. Tucked away in a serene location close to Mary's Market, local hiking and downtown Sierra Madre as well as Pasadena surrounding areas make this a rare and unique retreat.
