The Old Engine Company No. 6 on Massachusetts Ave in Washington, DC is a former District of Columbia Fire Department building which housed Engine 6 and Truck Company 4 between February 17, 1879 and June 27, 1974. The two-story brick building was built during the volunteer period and is the only remaining example from that time.

In 2012, the location was reopened as a restaurant.
