The 108 George Cassidy mentioned above was a Great Guy & FF & Mentor to me who was a Senior Man / LCC on both Siegel St & Union Ave. in 108..George grew up in a cold water flat in a tenement in Hells Kitchen (my Birthplace in St Clares)...George was a tough but warm hearted Irishman nicknamed "West Side George"...he would sit in the kitchen with his right knee crooked over his left knee & would be swinging his right foot...when a new guy or a detail was in the kitchen & got antsy when a box was coming in over the Bells....George would look at him & say "relax watch my foot , when it stops swinging then we go"...Photo of George in our 1963 Seagrave before the plywood riot roof was added over the Cab & Tiller..
