Wenatchee Fire Station No. 1, built in 1929 in Wenatchee, Washington, is a Beaux-Arts firehouse designed by architect Ludwig O. Solberg. The building exemplifies the style's emphasis on symmetry and classical detailing, while its distinctive five-story tower—which functions as both a hose tower and firefighting training facility—draws design inspiration from Gothic church steeples. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004, it stands as a significant work of early twentieth-century civic architecture in the Pacific Northwest.
