(London.CityRegions.com, June 15, 2013 ) Stockport, UK -- The Main Street in Annville is home to historic buildings and homes of the area. Buildings from the revolutionary-era, such as the log cabin on West Main to Kettering Corner, the Allen Theater, and the handful of stately homes are smattered throughout the strip.
Then there is the Union Hose Fire Company's station, located on East Main Street. The building is a historic mark, and is now looking to do something the other structures have not, according to President Ron Dowdy.
Dowey stated that the company will be looking to add a faux or real limestone facade to go with the other buildings within the township and blend with the surroundings. He also stated his interest in having a newly designed sign for the firehouse.
"It serves a purpose for what we need it for, but it's really starting to show its age," he said. "I'd be happy with paint, but we would like to put a new façade on it, at least on the front, to make it pop, make it fit in with all the historic homes. Make it look like it's been there awhile."
The costs is initially set at around $40,000 and $60,000, according to Dowey. However, the company recently finds itself a bit cash-strapped as they recently paid for a new fire truck. Dowey has inquired the commissioners office regarding available grants that could be used for the project.
"I'd like to get it fixed up, make it a little presentable," he said. "It's time to spruce it up a little bit. We're spending quite a bit of money to protect the township, but it's time now that we make it a little bit nicer down there."
Owen Moe, who sits as president of the Friends of Old Annville, stated on Wednesday that if the fire company's interest is strong enough, he would welcome the change. He did note however, that he had not heard of the interest up until that point.
"It's a nice, functional building, ... but it does sort of stand out in the midst of all these other restored buildings," he said.
