Do you remember Chicago Fire Stations that the firemen would decorate their buildings for Christmas.
One that was really good was at 55th & Narragansett.

53rd and Western Ave was pretty good. They had a Manger, wreaths and garland.

They had judging contest on them to see which one was the best. The house on Chicago Ave. east of Michigan was still being decorated back in the mid 2000's.

@Swede,
Are you speaking about a former firehouse on 53rd and Western? There is a Chicago Fire Dept. location at 2215 W 51st St. Also there was a former firehouse now gone that closed in the 1970's at 6041 South Western Ave. About decorating the best I've seen lately is the firehouse at 3401 N Elston Ave.
