GSA announces sale of historic fire station in Anniston, AL

ATLANTA — The U.S. General Services Administration is pleased to announce the public online sale of a former fire station in Anniston, Alabama. The opening bid starts at $80,000.

This property, located at 34 Traffic Circle (Building 69 Headquarters Road) in Anniston, includes one building of approximately 8,000 square feet on approximately one-half acre. The building is a T-shaped, two-story stucco structure in the Spanish Colonial Revival style. Characteristics of the building include a red-tiled barrel clay roof, two round arched garage openings, three Juliet balconies, and painted stucco exterior walls.

The building was constructed in 1936 as a fire station for the former Ft. McClellan Army installation and was previously used by the Anniston Fire Department. The property is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as a contributing building to the Post Headquarters Historic District.
