From Queen Anne News reader STEVE
DENNIS, who recently shared a couple
of pictures with us:
"I'm just kind of a history geek - I don't really take that many photos. I've worked as a firefighter at the Queen Anne station (No. 8) for about nine years, and I've been up on top of the old tower during drills maybe half a dozen times during drills using the ladder truck. It is the best view in the city, in my opinion; it's too bad that it might be torn down and not restored into a veiwpoint for the public like it was back in the old days.
"I was on eBay a while ago and found this postcard and decided to try to match it with the modern view. I took about 10 shots standing in different positions on the tower, and one of them matched up pretty closely.
I was thinking that I might frame the two shots and put them up in the fire station somewhere...."
