As career companies were being added to the expanding neighborhoods of Queens, division level supervision continued to be provided from Brooklyn's Division 11 and Division 13. Division 13 covered the eastern area of Queens from Flushing Creek to the Nassau County border. By 1927, Division 13 consisted of four battalions in Brooklyn and four battalions in Queens. As yet another battalion was to be added to the Division in 1930, a reorganization of Divisions occurred. Division 13 retained the Queens battalions while the Brooklyn battalions were organized as the new Division 15. The alignment of the two Queens Divisions has shifted from a predominantly east-west orientation to generally north-south. During the 1995-1997 division renumbering, Queens was covered by a single Division (5).
