Last week the City of Hartford put this old fire station up for sale. It dates back about a hundred years.
It served as the fire department's headquarters until 2013, when a new public safety complex opened.
The fire station closed early this year. The City hopes a developer might use the first floor
for restaurants or entertainment and the upper floors for condominiums.

It's a good looking functional old building...Ghost Busters?
A fine building in a central location should draw a number of developers. But what a terrible time to be trying to open a restaurant, a hazardous business in the best of times. Barbara Rogers may be right.
That would certainly have been the plan here in better times. We actually went to a restaurant last night which was only the 2nd day they were open here. There were few people around and all of the staff wore masks so I felt safe as we sat by an open window.
That would probably be the best use for it.
