Why they chose this property

What makes this property unique
We wanted to save a building originally constructed in 1940 and provide visitors a peak into the Town’s history.
Jailbreak was a one-story building to house the Colonial Beach Volunteer Fire Department. In 1952, a second story was added to the firehouse, resulting in the building that exists today. In 1990, the building served as the Colonial Beach Police Station, when an additional one-story, concrete-block, Cell Block, was added to hold the Station’s jailcells.
