Just north of 190. I used to walk past your building every school day for several years. I went to St Nicholas of Tolentine HS. It’s such a shame that the Armory just sits there. My uncle worked there as a Major in the National Guard ( he was full time). I remember as a young boy visiting him...
They were sharp looking but slightly underpowered, tight jumpseats, and falling apart prematurely. American LaFrance got in over their heads going after the FDNY bid and then couldn’t keep up with the warranty work. That resulted in their demise .

Photos I shot with a little 110 instamatic camera in December 1976. All Hands at 128 W Fordham Rd in a Laundromat. Ladders 33 and 46 opening up the roof. This was two doors down from the old Mannion's Bar. The laundromat is still there 50 years later. Mannion's long gone.
