Work to transform an old Binghamton firehouse from a restaurant into office and retail space is nearing completion.

Construction crews are working to transform the building that housed Binghamton's iconic Number 5 restaurant into retail and office space.

An old structure on Binghamton's South Side has been torn down as a redevelopment project involving a historic firehouse moves forward.

Construction workers are busy preparing a former Binghamton fire station that had been used as a restaurant for a new development called Number 5 Commons.
