After World War II, the San Jose Fire Department raised $350,000 (equivalent to $5,468,601 in 2023) fire bond to provide funds to build five new fire stations in 1946.The San Jose Central Fire Station (Station No. 1) was designated as the central fire station and emergency communications center for the San Jose Fire Department.
The suspicious fire began in the Chinese quarter of San Jose. The cause of the fire was never determined. To this day, many believe that racial tensions and anti-Asian sentiment led to the fire being intentionally set. Chinatown's structures were constructed mainly of wood, and the fire devastated the entire neighborhood which burnt to the ground.
