Present
The Schuyler Heights Fire District was formed in 1951 after a garage burned down in the Idlewild Park area. The department went into business in 1955 with two Maxim pumpers, which were housed in the two original bay stations on First Street. The District station was expanded in 1966 adding two more bays, a banquet room and offices. A deceased member, Fred Streck was very generous in helping to acquire one of the pumpers and donating a diesel generator in case of a power outage.
