    So they had a clubhouse on the lot next to the firehouse? That was a 200x150 vacant lot for many years. As of a few years ago, it’s now a massive MD.

    FDNY PROMOTIONS

    The DepCom of the press office went from FF to his current position. Guerra spent many years as Nigro's XO, so he is familiar with how HQ works.

    FDNY PROMOTIONS

    Interesting. A no-notice promotion ceremony for the highest ranks. And the effective date is that very day instead of the usual which is Saturday at 09:00. What exactly is an “Acting Citywide Tour Commander”? Never heard of it. Let alone two.

    Take a 360 on Google street view. Quite a few new MDs. Any many others underway. This was a residential neighborhood of 1 and 2 family homes. Population is exploding. Of people and automobiles.
