Historic Architecture, Architecture, Interesting Places, Other Buildings And Structures
The Watts De Peyster Fireman's Hall is located on Broadway in the village of Tivoli, New York, United States. John Watts De Peyster, a resident, paid for it and gave it to the village for its fire department in 1898. It is a brick "storefront" firehouse, a type of fire station more commonly seen in cities at the time than small rural villages like Tivoli.
Since the construction of a new firehouse in 1986 it has been the village hall. In 1989 it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and three years later it also became a contributing property to the Hudson River Historic District, a National Historic Landmark.
