That might actually be TL-161 administrative district. Funny how that works. And its all over the city where you inspect buildings where you are 4th or 5th due

^^^^^^^ Very true as far as Response Areas as opposed to Administrative Areas....(just two quick ones off the top of my head ) there is an area in QNS where the Administrative Unit is doing Building Inspection in their normally 3rd Alarm Response Area...... & another where the Administrative BN would not even respond to a Fire there on a "Postcard"......this has been discussed with Staff thru the years but the bottom line is unless ALL the BI boundaries & FH locations were re done (which is impossible) there is no answer & it only gets worse as more & more bldg construction takes place in previously undeveloped or underdeveloped low density areas of NYC.

When I was in 217-2 we had no district and went to the companies that were most behind in their inspections in the division. In some cases it was basically like being out of service for a few hours.
