Thanks Jack, wasn't sure since the aerial view didn't show a hose tower. I guess back then, most engines had hose drying racks on the side wall like E.213 had.

Thank you! While on the topic of old Brooklyn Engines, I couldn't find anywhere an active or disbanded Engine company that used to be qtrd. in the 1950's on Taaffe Place. I think they were somewhere behind the E.P.A. building on Flushing Ave.

Wow - So, that puts them back on Clymer St.

Just 3 short blocks north of E213's qtrs.. I guess E251 was still in Hooper St. with 211; otherwise it's along run from 254th St in Glen Oaks Queens Gone from that assignment from Brooklyn today are 213, BC36, 212, 215, 251, 209

It's amazing that in the opening of the video it showed fire out the Exp. 3 windows, and in a matter of 35 seconds, it blew out the front windows - almost as if an accelerant was used. I would presume that each window represented a room..... interesting.

I'm sure that we all have watched videos of fires started or involving Li-Ion batteries. Those injured including the FD member were indeed lucky they didn't wind up in a burn center. Luckily, just 4 short blocks north, there was a Level 1 trauma center at New York Presbyterian..

Lt.Don O'Leary and FF Joe Rodriguez worked together to establish the Legion and the accompanying medal. Two great firefighters.

Hatzoloh isn't going to be happy

Change in ownership and food quality?

234 could have stretched frm qtrs. and RS02 could have been 2nd due truck :sneaky:

hard to tell' original transmission was "involved in a collision"

I remember it closed at least 11 years ago due to shrinking Catholic enrollment, and religious demographics in the neighborhood did a radical change.. Haven't been there in a while, but I heard the city was trying to negotiate the building into a public middle school.

I thought 146/41 was already at the fire. Were they released and reassigned?

107 to TL44 is about 20 miles. E222 to E38 is also about 20 miles, each depending upon the route taken.

Chuck went to the 15th

I thought they would normally be 2nd due with E305/

So then, Conditions cars are still Lieutenants, and HazTec units are still paramedics?

I wonder when someone will come out with a memo to battalions that driveways aren't exposures; especially when there's a similar occupancy 10 ft. on the other side of that driveway.

I believe that may have been the job where there was a smoke explosion in the cockloft that blew the 2nd due engine out into the hallway and partially down the stairs.

Has there been any updates on the rumors about encrypting the Dept. radio transmissions? Also, I must be in a dead zone in Queens, specifically the area around Queens College. All FDNY freqs. on my SDS100 are hashed and practically inaudible as well as all EMS frequencies. HOWEVER. all NYPD...
