LAFD website has a station locator map.
Fire Station Locator
Enter the area / address or zip code and nearby by stations pop up.

Website also has a listing of all their stations
LAFD - Neighborhood Fire Stations

Someone also made their own map with Google
LAFD Station Map

Lastly can also download a pdf map with all stations listed from the city website

If "downtown" is arbitrarily but reasonably defined as the area bounded by the Harbor (SR 110), Hollywood (US 101), Santa Monica (I-10) freeways and the L.A. River, the "downtown" stations would be 3's, the "new" 4's, 9's, and 10's.

A while back the LAFD Blog carried an item and video about 9's, which is perennially the city's busiest station (50-60 runs a day), and said by some to be the busiest house in the country:
