Built around 1882, Hose House No. 2 in Idaho Springs, Colorado, is a small Victorian-era fire station measuring just 16 by 20 feet. Located at 600 Colorado Blvd., the one-story structure housed a fire hose cart for the town's early volunteer firefighting operations on the west end, serving in that capacity until 1929. Also known as the West End Hose House and the 6th and Colorado Hose House, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.
