Engine House No. 5 (Columbus, Ohio)

Engine House No. 5 is a former Columbus Fire Department station in the German Village neighborhood of Columbus, Ohio. The building was constructed in 1894, designed in the Richardsonian Romanesque style by John Flynn. The station was decommissioned in 1968. From 1974 to 2002, the space was used for a restaurant and bar, also known as Engine House No. 5. In 2004, the building was converted for office use, and today is the Columbus branch of Big Red Rooster, a marketing company. The station is one of two remaining Columbus fire stations designed by Flynn, and one of seven 1890s fire stations remaining in the city. It is a contributing part of the German Village Historic District, listed as a Columbus city historic district in 1960 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
