    Blocked NYC fire hydrants

    Issuing a fine to the vehicle owner is a great irony. The vehicle was booted for non-payment. ONLY THE ROUTINE SEIZURE OF PROPERTY WILL CHANGE BEHAVIOR.

    2/26/25 Manhattan 3rd Alarm Box 1775

    Idea- since Fire Prevention is responding, they should inspect the fire building for violations.

    2/14/25 Staten Island 10-75 Box 2218

    Incredible to see how fast that neighborhood is being taken over by Chinese. Seems like every third store on Hylan Blvd and New Dorp Lane has Chinese lettering on the facade. 10 years ago there were none.

    2/12/25 Bronx 3rd Alarm Box 3160

    In an area like that, a hydrant with without a car parked on it would be a rare exception. Until towing is the penalty, nothing will change.

    Kelly's is still going. A nice feature is that you can enter from 4th or 5th Ave. Just in case. 242 less than a block away.

    44 Truck

    "The Castle" is 1950 Andrews Avenue. A very large 7 wing Class 3 MD. The front doors of 6/7 wings are only accessible via an interior courtyard. It was vacant for many years. Reliable estimates say there were well over 100 significant fires there in the 70's and 80's.

    1/15/25 Bronx 4th Alarm Box 3740

    It is impossible to "drop it down". That implies that you are/were using more than 1&1. Drop it down from what? A 2&2, a 1&2? A stupid viral phrase that gets used unthinkingly. "Is a 10-18 sufficient?" "can you release the other units?" "10-18 for a 10-XX"
