    8/19/2022 Brooklyn 10-75 Box 1359

    When I worked north Brooklyn we had maps of most of the NYCHA buildings. You don't want to wander around if you don't have to. Red Hook was a "fun" place to work. Centre Mall used to be a shooting gallery.

    FDNY Rigs circa 1968

    I like the grill mods on the Dodge to fit the bell and siren on the bumper! Also notice in one pic to the left a VW Karmann Ghia not a car you see anymore. When I lived at home next door to us were 2 brothers who had their own band. I was probably 10 or so and they were maybe 10 years older...

    FDNY Rigs circa 1968

    Nice pictures! Good rear view of Satellite 3 and the SP in one photo. Also the picture of Richmond Engine 1 to the left I believe was a garden shop at one time. My dad went there pretty often in the summer and I remember being in there many times. No Home Depot then. Does anyone recall the name...

    6/26/22 Brooklyn 3rd Alarm Box 2634

    More batteries from these E bikes? These things are really getting to be a public safety issue. But I guess its ok when it goes along with the city administration's plans. Whats a few buildings and some casualties? Of course I'm only guessing at what caused it but we'll see.

    6/17/22 Queens 5th Alarm Box 6068

    Looking at the picture from the rear of the fire building they did a great job keeping it from really getting out of hand. The wind was over 20mph today. This really could have been a much worse situation, the FDNY does its best work in the worst conditions. Well done men!
