1990 Dept 56 "Red Brick Fire Station" Christmas in the City Series. 5536-0. Handpainted Porcelain. Measures about 10.5" in height by 5.75" long. Excellent condition. Comes with light cord and box.
Honor the heroes of the holiday season with this Department 56 Red Brick Fire Station. Introduced in 1990 as part of the Christmas in the City Series, this hand-painted porcelain building captures the classic turn-of-the-century architecture of an urban firehouse. The piece features a striking red brick facade detailed with gray stone quoins and a tall corner watchtower that adds dramatic height to any street scene.
The details on this piece are exceptional, from the "Engine House AD 1901" sign in the gable to the bright red double doors marked for Engine 5 and Ladder 6. A "CCFD" sign sits proudly above the entrance, representing the Christmas City Fire Department. Holiday spirit is woven into the design with sculpted green wreaths and red bows adorning the windows and tower. When illuminated, the station casts a warm, inviting glow, suggesting the firefighters are ready and waiting inside.
This item makes a meaningful gift for active or retired firefighters, first responders, or collectors wishing to add a vital community service building to their holiday city.
