10 Must-See Museums in Houston

By Shea Serrano, About.com Guide

A bonafide Houston landmark, the HFM is housed in what was formerly the first paid Fire Station for the city. To supplement HFM’s growing online catalog of photographs and videos, you can see exhibits that include a 1937 Chevrolet Pumper, The Hopkins Collection, which is a rotating display of antique fire fighting artifacts, and the Watch Office, a restored call room that allows visitors to simulate what it was like to receive a fire call in the 1950’s.
