      Ladder 49's original 1913 vintage firehouse was at 1079 Nelson Ave. which is directly behind this house. L49 ran out of 1080 Ogden from 1947-1979.

    Former E36 Quarters being converted to Afro-caribbean Cultural Institute

    Contrary to what the Daily News wrote; This was NOT E36's "long time" house. Rather, it was Ladder 14's house! >:( E36's old home was at 1849 Park Ave. (btwn 126 & 127) and was only at 120 E. 125th St. for a few years after L14 moved to their present location. >:(
