Mayor Andrew Broaddus, Life-saving station in Louisville, United States.

The Mayor Andrew Broaddus measures 98 feet in length with a beam of 38 feet, featuring a two-story design and elevated lookout tower.

Launched in 1929 as Life Saving Station #10, this steel-hulled vessel replaced the original wooden structure that began service at the Falls of Ohio in 1881.

The station records document the rescue of approximately 7,000 lives and protection of property valued at 6 million dollars between 1881 and 1915.

The vessel currently functions as an adjunct to the Belle of Louisville, positioned at the foot of Fourth Street along the Ohio River.

This National Historic Landmark represents the only surviving floating lifesaving station of the United States Life-Saving Service in existence.
