The Building Story

A former fire station with individual loft homes

Firehouse No. 25 is a condominium conversion at 1406 Harvard Avenue on Capitol Hill. Its former fire-station use gives the property a different architectural starting point from a purpose-built apartment block. Documented residences make use of the building’s height with multilevel plans, vaulted ceilings and skylights, while the brick exterior preserves a clear connection to its earlier civic role.

The interiors are individual rather than interchangeable. One reviewed two-bedroom home includes a flexible main-floor room, an upper loft area and a second bedroom beneath an operable skylight. Secure garage parking and separate storage are also documented in that listing. A buyer should spend time understanding the exact stairs, natural-light sources and boundaries of the home. Published construction years and total residence counts are inconsistent, so this profile does not reduce the building’s conversion history to a single unqualified date or unit count.
