Gloria’s Latin Cuisine

“I loved it because I was home,” he says. “I was born just down the street at Methodist, went to school in the neighborhood, played in the creeks there, and now I was working in my backyard.”

He thinks this picture of him in front of the station was taken in 1973.

The station moved to 111 E. Eighth in the summer of 1975, and that one is still in operation today.

The old fire station later was converted to an office building. Gloria’s Latin Cuisine renovated the old firehouse, and after closing its original location on West Davis Street at Llewellyn Avenue, moved in 2011. Gloria’s won an award for its preservation efforts from the Old Oak Cliff Conservation League, now Heritage Oak Cliff, in 2012.
