The James Geddes Engine Company No. 6 building was constructed in 1886. The former firehouse is in a Victorian style. At the time of construction the fire department used horse drawn vehicles thus explaining the fairly narrow front garage door . The circular tower to the right of the building had the fireman pole which is still present. the fire station was named for James Geddes, a surveyor of the railroad line between Louisville and Nashville in the 1850s. After sitting vacant for a number of years the building has now been converted to attorneys' offices.
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
