The Galt Fire Department Hall consists of a two-storey red-brick masonry building and was designed by architect Fred Mellish and was constructed in 1898. The building had been converted into a Fire Hall Museum for the city of Cambridge.
During a previous re-habilitation (circa 1980), the double masonry arches were removed and replaced with a single rectangular opening.
Engineering Link assisted with reinstating the original look of the building’s masonry double arched fire truck entrance doors. The work entailed shoring the existing front façade, underpinning the front perimeter of the building, and installing a new exterior wall which includes installing a new precast concrete back up wall and new masonry veneer.
