    Which FDNY Firehouses had the worst parking (for personal vehicles) ?

    Any firehousein a building that also houses a police precinct. The cops have their cars all over the place with no room for FDNY. E 248 is a prime example in with 67 Precinct. Might be the same with E 245/L 161 and others.

    4/6/23 Brooklyn 10-77 Box 3762

    There must have been other activity. E 248 was third due at that box when on Church Avenue. Went to many incinerator/compactor fires there. Since they moved in 1972, they are no longer on the box. E 234 normally 3rd due with L 123 FT. I don't think it is a B 41 box anymore either.
