It certainly is RED
At first I thought that was a bell I could see, but when I look more closely it's a lock I think?

Interesting angle you've taken this on ...... Skippy

Derno

It is a fire alarm pull station. You pull down on the white part that looks like a "T". It triggers an electrical connection that sounds the strobes and announcement to get the heck out of the area. The key slot is for resetting it after it has been pulled. For some reason the kiddies love to pull them:D I have to reset them all the time where I work. We have to investigate the situation and call the Fire Department if necessary. Some are connected directly to the Fire Department. If you don't let them know it is a false alarm you will have all kinds of company with bells and whistles

I work at Universal Orlando . They were just here. You missed them.:D
Someone overheated the pizza oven. Their station is only a couple of blocks down the street. They visit often. I think they like the place. I'll let you know the next time they visit.
