Historic Station No. 7
“Old 7’s”, Home of the Houston Fire Museum, Winner of a 2024 Good Brick Award!
This annual award competition from Preservation Houston recognizes outstanding contributions to the preservation, restoration, and enhancement of Houston’s architectural and cultural heritage. The Museum was among ten winners to receive this prestigious award. The Museum’s Trustees would like to thank architect Clayton Fry - Repractice Architecture, Project Manager Bob Brooks – BMP Group, and Contractor Tellepsen Builders for their dedication and expertise on this project. None of this work would be possible without the partnership of our generous donors, including our top gift of $1,000,000 from Camden Property Trust.

We recently completed a $5.7M building preservation project. The Museum’s home, “Old 7’s,” a station built in 1899, has been closed for the past four years.

Come see firsthand how it has been restored to its original beauty with added modern conveniences.

Exhibits are limited to highlight the masonry, woodwork, and window restorations of this historic gem.

Admission is free throughout 2024. Your donations are appreciated as they help us continue our mission.
