Station 3
Description
Station 3 is a beautifully restored historical landmark just outside downtown Houston on Houston Avenue. So close to the city center, most downtown hotel shuttles will transport your guests to our venue at no charge! Originally built in 1903 and fondly known as "Stonewall," Station 3 was one of Houston's first fire stations. Its timeless motto, "Trust in Us," remains etched in the building's stone facade. In its early days, firefighters here extinguished flames using horse-drawn wagons and steamers. The venue boasts two stories and 5,800 square feet of flexible event space. Both levels feature open floor plans, soaring ceilings, and abundant windows that fill the space with natural light. Original details, including brick walls, wood floors, concrete beams, and intricately carved stonework, preserve the building's historic charm. Following a complete restoration in 2014, Station 3 seamlessly blends historic beauty with modern amenities, making it perfect for weddings, corporate gatherings, and private events. Rental packages are customizable to fit your needs, with options for weekday or weekend events. Base packages typically include 4 hours for setup, 4 hours for the event, and 1 hour for breakdown. The venue is also available for photo shoots and film projects, including bridals and engagements.
