Geocache Description:

The nearby building has stood here since 1916. The Baldwin Engine & Hose Co. combined with Charlotte Hook & Ladder Co. under the name Hose Company No. 22 & resided here until 1962 when they moved down the road to a more modern facility. It stood empty for 47 years until 2007 when it was converted into the restaurant it is today. Restorations were meticulously done based on old photos.

It is a tribute to the men who served here, and to Charlotte... a community rich in history.

For my first hides I decided to stick close to home and do an "I Love Charlotte" series.

Charlotte (pronounced shar-LOT) is a neighborhood in Rochester, New York located at the mouth of the Genesee River along Lake Ontario. Founded in 1788, and originally called Charlottesburgh, Charlotte might have been a major city, but the arrival of the Erie Canal in 1823 resulted in the dominance of the settlements at the City of Rochester. Charlotte was annexed by the City of Rochester in 1916.

Congratulations to Billsfan on FTF!
