Old Hokitika Fire Station


Down one of the main streets in Hokitika is this gem. The Old Hokitika Fire Station has been made into boutique accommodation consisting of 5 apartments. Apparently each of the apartments is named after a fire chief who once lead the brigade which I think is a nice nod to it's history.

Ingo was a firefighter, too, with all the heavy gear (when he was young).
