Firemen's museum eyed for old Independent Hose Co. building
City owns the West Church Street structure after the old Independent Hose Co. No. 1 moves out. Mrs. Birch Hotz proposes a multipurpose firemen's museum to showcase Maryland firefighting history, possibly partnering with county fire companies and offering office space for volunteers or city agencies. Other ideas include selling or repurposing the building, but the museum plan highlights the volunteer fire tradition.
