Fire Station No. 4 in Columbus, Indiana, United States, is a building designed by architect Robert Venturi. It is architecturally significant for being an early example of postmodern architecture. [1] [2]
In 1967, Venturi was asked by the fire department of the city of Columbus to design a fire station, which was to be an "ordinary building that was easy to maintain". [3] The design features a trapezoidal plan, with a semicircular tower serving as the main entrance to the building. A notable feature of the tower is the large yellow number 4 located at its top.
