"I've Red That!"
The Red Firehouse is more than a building.
It's a place where stories are created, shared, and brought to life.
"I've Red That!"
The Red Firehouse is more than a building.
It's a place where stories are created, shared, and brought to life.
The Lowell Firehouse stands in Everett's historic Lowell neighborhood, first founded in 1863 as an independent mill town nearly 30 years before Everett existed… a place still rich with history, character, and stories waiting to be told.
This is where Brent lives. This is where Lowell the Firetruck began.
What started as a restored, decommissioned firehouse became the spark behind Red Firehouse Books. Not because it was planned that way, but because certain places become part of the story themselves.
Inspired by the Lowell Firehouse, The Red Firehouse brings together books, creativity, imagination, and community.
A bench. A window. A place to sit and read.
Maybe even say, "I've Red That!"
Outside, a reading bench invites visitors to slow down, open a book, and let a story take them somewhere.
It's more than a tagline. It's an experience — a welcome, an invitation, and a place to belong.
Brent and his wife of 35 years have built a life centered on family, community, and gathering. The Red Firehouse extends that spirit outward as a creative and community-centered space.
Workshops happen here. Stories are shared here. Connections are made here.
It's a working firehouse — once built to extinguish flames, now reimagined to ignite imagination.
Creative writing workshops and storytelling sessions designed to inspire imagination, strengthen craft, and help every voice find its place.
Signed books, special editions, and stories shared directly from the source. The door opens to the world of RedFirehouse Books.
A place to sit, slow down, and spend time with a story. Because "I've Red That!" was never just a tagline — it was always an invitation.
Book clubs, conversations, and community events where readers become friends and stories bring people together.
Author talks, storytelling experiences, workshops, and creative presentations that bring imagination and real-life stories to life.
Come as you are. Whether you've followed Brent's stories for years or are discovering them for the first time, there's always a place for you here.
