The Hyde Park Firehouse is located along US 9 in downtown Hyde Park, New York, USA. It was built in 1905 as headquarters for the Eagle Engine and Rescue fire company, which later became part of the Hyde Park fire department and moved to newer quarters a block further up Route 9. Architects John O'Donnell and William Beardsley designed it in a Renaissance Revival style.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1993. Today it serves as a museum for the Town of Hyde Park Historical Society.[1]
