Also address integrity) <br /> <br />The Cypress Fire Station is significant as the oldest fire station in Santa Ana, predating Fire Station No. 1 by one year. It was <br />built in 1928 as Fire Station No. 4 to serve the Eastside community. Like many civic and institutional buildings constructed in <br />southern California at the time, the new fire station was Spanish Colonial Revival in design. It cost approximately $9,000 to <br />build. In 1962, the station was converted for neighborhood use. <br /> <br /> (See Continuation Sheet 3 of 3.) <br /> <br /> <br />B11.
