Box 3370, Webster and Fordham Rd., is literally steps away, like 10 yards. Box 3334 is at 193d and Decatur, a looong block north. L38 gets in to 3370 2d due, ahead of L37, but because the Box transmitted was 3334 they are assigned as FAST. That means the truck closer to the fire building (L38) was delayed in responding. Could make a difference, as it might have a few years ago. (See EdMc reference below.) Multiple alarm assignments differ greatly on these two boxes also. Since the physical street boxes were removed back in the 90's, the computer assignments are sometimes really off the mark. Can't believe the dispatchers would make that mistake.

Correct Ed.
Oops, wrong address. 2/12/20 was at 2567 Decatur. 2537 Decatur was a 2d Alarm on 5/3/18 when L56 (I believe) made the great grab of a woman out 4th Floor window.

Same building. Guy was on the floor above out the window. L-56 got the guy just in time. It was about 6 years ago.
