The city of Newton has six firehouses within the city. This waymark is on Station 3 on Willow Street in Newton Centre, which is also by the Newton Fire Department Headquaarters. The waymark is located in front of the headquarters building.
According to an article found on WickedLocal.com (Community Newspaper Corp.)., the firehouse is Station 3 of six stations (there is a Station 7 and 10 but not 5 or 6).
The Headquarters building is located at 1164 Centre Street. However, the two structures are within feet of one another on the backside of both buildings. The date at the top of the building is 1928.
The web site for the city's fire department does not break things down. There is 1 Chief, 5 Assistant Chiefs, and 196 civil servants. There are 7 fire trucks, 3 ladder trucks, and 1 Rescue throughout the city. I don't know what is specifically at the Newton Centre building. The number below is the sum for the entire city.
