     History
    Opened in 1905 as Winnipeg's Fire Station No.5. Closed as a fire station in 1919 when fire engines became motorized and the downtown stations could cover the area faster. After 1919 it was used by Winnipeg Hydro for quite some time before it became a Auto Body shop. The Auto Body shop moved in 2007. It was then bought by Lions Manor Senior Center next door and now they are planning to demolish it!
