The station and its apparatus are verbalized as "one-five" during radio traffic as not to confuse radio communications with Birmingham Fire Station No. 16.
History

A second building was constructed in 1928 at 1345 Steiner Avenue Southwest near Woodward Park. That two-story beige brick building currently houses the offices of Partners in Neighborhood Growth.
