The Omaha Fire Department Hose Company building is located at 999 North 16th Street in Omaha, Nebraska, United States. The former home of Omaha Fire Department's hose company number 4 and designed by German-born architect Joseph P. Guth and built in 1913 by Dutchman Peter Kiewit & Sons, the building is now unoccupied.[1] Charles A. Salter was the chief of the fire department at the time.[1] [2]
In 2011, the Nebraska State Historical Society included the building in its Reconnaissance Survey of Downtown and Columbus Park Omaha, which was prepared for the City of Omaha.[3]
The building has served as the home of horse-drawn fire wagons, a plumbing company, an auto transmission shop, an armored car garage and, its last known use, for storage.[1]
