It was a horse-mounted police station. Reviewers noted the case is good under Criterion A but not fully developed for Criterion C, and that it is part of a thematic group of Cincinnati patrol stations tied to the history of law enforcement.","narrative":"Patrol Station No. 6 is a two-story brick building with an ashlar stone foundation at the southwest corner of Delta Avenue and Columbia Parkway in Cincinnati. Built in 1901 to designs by architect Samuel Hannaford, it was a horse-mounted police station. The Romanesque design is marked by a corner turret with an overhanging bell-cast cap, a row of four first-floor and three second-floor Romanesque windows along the Delta Avenue side, a winged gable dormer, gable ends facing both streets, and detailing around the entrance. An outside hoist projects from a second-floor window on the east facade, and the roof is irregular slate. The building was listed as one of several Cincinnati patrol and police stations, a group that documents the role of such stations in local law enforcement. The inventory calls it an antique design and a visual focal point that anchors a busy intersection alongside two other strong corner buildings. It was later used as a discotheque and was owned by the city.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":"Samuel Hannaford (architect)","architectural_style":"Romanesque","criteria":["A","C"],"status_note":"Inventory lists the original use as police station and the present use as a discotheque; exterior condition fair.
