Matt, Looking at those moustashes I can see how they got the nickname "crumb catcher".
I never did believe my dad about this firestation until about a year or so ago when I was working with someone and asked them about it! Wow how times and technology have changed since then! My gosh even something that was routine 20 years ago, it is totally opposite now!

Is the old fire station today's Hilbert Agency?
Yes.
