To give Walt Disney and his family their own secluded nook at Disneyland. Disney had a private apartment built above the Fire Department on Town Square. The furniture design was in a "Firehouse" look, with reds, and whites, decorating the room. The apartment is was very small, but is fully functional. It consists of a large sitting room, with built-in sofas that could be pulled out as beds, a small dressing room, a small bathroom, with a shower, along with a small kitchen unit.
Many of the furnishings were antiques that had been personally selected by Mrs. Disney. An alcove contained a small sink and a refrigerator. At one time the fire pole from the fire department extended on up into the apartment, but it was blocked off after someone climbed the pole into the apartment. The apartment has been maintained up to the present, and is occasionally used by Disney executives. Size of the apartment is 600-square-feet. The outer doors of the fire department were closed when the apartment was occupied
