The Fireboat House at Pier 22 in San Francisco is a historic landmark that serves as the city's only firehouse dedicated to the crews of its fireboats. Designed by Alfred A. Pyle, the Renaissance Revival structure with Mission Revival elements showcases the city's important maritime history and features an intact interior with iron spiral staircase, brass fire poles, and tongue-and-groove surfaces.
Located on Port property but controlled and staffed by the San Francisco Fire Department, the Fireboat House is connected to the berths of the city's two fireboats, Phoenix and Guardian. With its exterior remaining true to its 1916 photograph, the Fireboat House stands as a reminder of San Francisco's maritime heritage and displays one of the few surviving working maritime activities along the Embarcadero.
