About Firehouse, Hook & Ladder Company 8
Firehouse, Hook & Ladder Company 8 is an FDNY station at 14 North Moore Street, where that street meets Varick Street, in Manhattan's Tribeca neighborhood. It went up in 1903 to serve as the home of Hook and Ladder company 8, a company that had earlier been independent.
The design is credited to Alexander H. Stevens, the city's superintendent of buildings, and it began his series of Beaux-Arts firehouses. The station originally had two vehicle doors. In 1913 the widening of Varick Street cut the building to half its size.
Its exterior became famous through the Ghostbusters franchise. The firehouse was picked as the Ghostbusters' base for the 1984 film, reportedly because Dan Aykroyd, a writer and actor, was familiar with the area and liked the building. Only the exterior scenes were shot there; the interior of the base was filmed inside a studio and a decommissioned firehouse, both in Los Angeles.
