This 7,000 square foot building, built in 1914, served as Houston Heights' original city
hall, jail, and fire station. The building has changed little since its construction and is
located at 12th and Yale Streets. It operated as a City of Houston fire station from
annexation in 1918 until 1995. The Houston Heights Association obtained a 30-year
lease from the City of Houston and immediately began restoration of this beautiful,
historic building. Restoration was complete in April 1997 and includes a catering
kitchen and chair lift. It is perfect for wedding receptions, small and large business
meetings, civic organizations, social clubs, parties, garage sales, antique sales, or
holiday gatherings.
