99% a renovation of quarters... especially the apparatus floor.... some locations they can store the rig in a pen outdoors but i don't think this location would lend itself to that convenience
As per Google Maps....
159 quarters to Beach 138 Street ... 6.2 miles
121 quarters to Beach 138 Street ... 4.7 miles
134 quarters to Beach 138 Street ... 6.4 miles (utilizing either BCD all the way or the Freeway/Shore Front Pkwy)
About 1100 this morning... no FD units on scene, just OEM, Buildings, NYS DEC Spill Response, a few contractors who looked to be constructing a wooden barrier around the property and a few firms who were assisting in mitigating some of the crap left over from water runoff
I think assigning the farther out units instead of rotating the same close-in units serves as a bit of a training tool to keep everyone fresh especially on incidents like this which are not the norm of daily operations.
