The Stoneham Firestation is a historic fire station at Central and Emerson Streets in Stoneham, Massachusetts. The two-story red brick Renaissance Revival building was built in 1916, and continues to serve as the town's central fire station. Its most prominent feature is its four-story hose drying tower, which is reminiscent of Italian Renaissance-era towers.[2] The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984,[1] and included as a contributing property to the Central Square Historic District in 1990.[2]
