SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- South Bend’s Northeast Neighborhood Revitalization Organization officially reopened the Historic Firehouse Station 7 on Monday, but not to put out fires.

The building on Notre Dame Avenue will instead serve as a food pantry and meeting space for the local neighborhood.

Renovations cost more than $250,000 for the firehouse, which was originally built in 1904 and is now on the National Register of Historic Places.

The building was last used as a firehouse in the early 1960s.
