609 Second Avenue, City of Watervliet, Town of Watervliet, County of Albany, State of New York
Property History: The building was first built in 1853 as the Conquer Engine Company firehouse. In 1873, Tom McIntyre took over the firehouse, and it became known as the McIntyre Hose Company. The building later served as the Watervliet Senior Center during the 1960s and the Water Department garage in the later years prior to being sold in 2003. The building was sold in 2003, and its most recent owner, William O'Brien, had been working toward restoring it. It also served as the home of O'Brien Electrical Contracting while undergoing its renovation. Mostly renovated and ready for your finishing touches. This is a must see!
