The Elm Street Fire House is a historic fire house at 24 Elm Street in Southbridge, Massachusetts. It was Southbridge's second fire house (after the Globe Village Fire House) to be built in the 1890s. It was designed by Worcester architect George H. Clemence, whose previous commissions included some of that city's fire houses. The building, featuring a row of truck bays and a tower, combines stylistic elements from the Classical, Gothic, and Romanesque Revivals.[2]

The station was built in 1899 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
