Plus the weather conditions are difficult to put it lightly. The wind, snow, and bitter cold are definetely making this a tough job. It sounds like it's going to be a long night.
 
Excellent rundown Hurricanes... Yeah this weather is somethin else! Makes operations 1000x harder - wishing a safe return for all of the members.

  Ladder 27 acting L61?  ??? I see E60 & TL17 got reunited for the new year acting 92/44 ;)
 
Those blocks along College Avenue from 167th to 170th Streets have been the scene of several significant fires over the years. They are comprised of many frame and brick row house multiple dwellings. Many have common cockloft construction still considered to be of historical architectural value (and big fire hazard) in the history of the Bronx. They were the forerunners of the multi-story apartment building common throughout the Borough. 

Om May 13, 1913, Engine 92 (Ladder 44 would not tap in service until November of that year) responded to then Box 2495 to find fire spreading from a unit at 1358 College Avenue into the cockloft. Lt John Redden transmitted a second alarm upon arrival. He and two of his men then rescued several people, including an invalid, from the second floor. The blaze, E92's first multiple, went to a third alarm, the highest pre-designated assignment of that time. The rundown:

92 50 71  32 27  Bn 17 Bn 20

42 46 41  31      Bn 13  Dv7

82 68 93  19      Bn 14


On March 29, 2001, buildings of the same row went up leading to a 7th alarm. I don't have that rundown but 92/44 again were first due.

Praise to all the gallant men who fought that fire last night in that weather.

  Wow, 1913 when L32 was at 491 E. 166th St. with E50, E42 was on Fulton Ave. nr. 168th St., L19 was at Forest Ave. & 160th St. and Div. 7 was the only Bronx Division.
 
You got it, G-man. And, of course, BN 20, made up of E's 42, 45, 82, 88; L's 19, 31, 38 (and soon E94/L48) was headquartered at E82.

Two battalion chiefs on the first alarm, rare in the Bronx in those days, indicated the high fire risk in the neighborhood then known as Fleetwood or Claremont Heights.
