An unusual building is up for auction in Riverside this month. The 2,112-square-foot property at 901 N. Porter Ave., which is at the northwest corner of Franklin and Porter, was built as Wichita’s Firehouse No. 7 in 1922. “That’s really got a lot of history to it,” said auctioneer Rick Brock of McCurdy Real Estate & Auction. According to the Kansas Firefighters Museum archives, the $25,000 station initially had four firefighters assigned there.
