Fire Station Number 4 or Fire Station No. 4 is a historic fire station located at 474 Broadway in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. The Queen Anne Style station was built in 1890. It is a two-and-a-half story, hip-roofed rectangular brick building with two brick wings and a bell tower. Constructed of red brick with sandstone trim and sandstone lintels and sills on the windows, the building has a foliate terracotta plaque bearing its name and date of construction. The fire station was closed as a firehouse in 1974, when the current Fire Station Number 4 on Cottage Street opened. The interior of the building was greatly modified to accommodate offices and meeting rooms by the time of its listing on the national register. As of 2014, the building is being used by the Catholic Charities of Providence. Fire Station Number 4 was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.DesignFire Station Number 4 was constructed in 1890 by an unknown architect on the southwest corner of Broadway and Carnation Street, in the center of Pleasant View neighborhood. The main block of the Queen Anne-styled red brick firehouse is a two-and-a-half story, hip-roofed rectangle with a cross-gable facing Broadway. A pair of matching single-story wings with gable-on-hipped roofs project from the long sides of the building. The building has small hip-roofed porches with arched openings on the main entrance and Broadway facing sides. Though constructed of red brick and pinkish mortar, sandstone was used for the window sills and lintels and the station's trim. The building has detailed terracotta work, with an ornate foliate name and date plaque on the front gable and a string course at the base of the corbeled main entrance. Above the plaque is a semi-circular window, and another round-headed window is on the northern side. The northwest corner has a square hose drying/bell tower that also has its own round headed window. The station has been modified; its two fire engine doors have been removed and replaced with modern garage doors. The pyramidal roof on the belfry which crowned the bell tower was "recently" removed at the time of its NRHP nomination in 1983.
The Pawtucket Congregational Church is an historic church building at 40 and 56 Walcott Street, at the junction of Broadway and Walcott St., in the Quality Hill neighborhood of Pawtucket, Rhode Island.HistoryEarly in the town's history, the Baptists lived mainly on the west side of the river, and attended church services in Providence. The Congregationalists on the east side of the river attended services at the Newman Congregational Church three miles away in Rehoboth (now East Providence). The Congregationalists established their own Pawtucket Congregational Church on April 17, 1829, with nine members: eight women and one man. The first pastor was the Rev. Asa T. Hopkins. The congregation's first church was destroyed by fire in 1864.The Italianate/Romanesque style church building was designed by Boston, Massachusetts architect John Stevens (not to be confused with John Calvin Stevens) and constructed in 1867-1868; it is the only known work of Stevens in Rhode Island. The cost of construction was $64,000. By 1886 the congregation numbered 300 members. Members of the church included wealthy mill owners from Pawtucket and neighboring Central Falls such as Darius Goff and Daniel Littlefield. In 1936 a Colonial Revival parish house was built behind the church, to designs by local architects Monahan & Meikle.
