The Main Street firehouse was built in 1895 around horse-drawn equipment and stayed in service until 1993, when a modern station in Central Square took over. Rather than come down, it was renovated from 2000 into a boutique hotel with the Victorian shell and cupola kept. It sits in the middle of a biotech district that did not exist when the horses did.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
