I was referring to the period when the WTC was being built (1970's) and L-10's firehouse on Fulton St. was demolished.

  Engine 7 was a double company and the second section was kept in its own bay. L-10 was not in that last bay because the Fire Museum was already in there. I remember seeing L-10 stored between E-7 & TL-1. Also E-31 was in the firehouse for a while and it was also in one of the other two bays.

Before that period Throgs Neck was a virtual country club assignment and E-89 used to often relocate to E-64 and L-50 relocated to L-47, 50 & 51. Many times E-61, E-64 and L-47 were first into Throgs Neck.
