Here are the answers I was looking for:-
Question One
Firehouse on Main Street, USA is "Engine Co. 71."
Question Two
The African Queen, starring Humphrey Bogart and Katherine Hepburn
Question Three
Officially titled, "La Fontaine de Cendrillon" (or Fountain of Cinderella), this bronze statue is named after the fairy tale heroine who became popular in France in 1967, and served as the inspiration for Disney's 1950 animated classic, "Cinderella."
This fountain is known as "Rags to Riches" because if you stand (actually, you may have to kneel) in front of Cinderella and look at the painted mural behind it on the Castle wall, a painted image of a crown appears to be sitting on top of the princess' head. Although an adult may have to get low to see it, this was designed intentionally so that when children look at the fountain, they can clearly see the crowned princess.
Question Four
They represent the first 13 colonies of the United States. Located across from the Hall of Presidents, The Liberty Tree commemorates the communal meeting place of the Sons of Liberty who in 1765 protested the imposition of the Stamp Act.
The first 13 colonies are:-

Pennsylvania Wednesday, December 12th, 1787
New Jersey Tuesday, December 18th, 1787
