Changes to the Cleveland Park Firehouse are coming. Expect the bells and sirens of the Cleveland Park firehouse to fall silent sometime in 2007. Bids were to open this month for a gutting and overdue renovation of the landmark 1916 brick and granite structure with its iconic twin red doors. According to D.C. Battalion Fire Chief John M. Lee, work will begin in late spring or early summer and will take about one year. During that time, firefighters and equipment will be shifted to nearby stations.
