Rescue 1

Is there room in Hudson Yards to add a firehouse?

No

What about the 79th St & 5th Av area? Is that too far north?

Maybe the city can use eminent domain and acquire Mike Bloomberg's townhouses.

Would Ladder 20 have enough room?

So here is a fun exercise: if acquiring the property was not an issue, where would the ideal location for a new R1 firehouse be? Keep in mind East-west travel, access to highways and bridges, and overall best primary area coverage - have fun. There are no right or wrong answers.

There is a big empty lot next to Ladder 21/ Engine 34 that would work for a new Rescue 1.

E34 TL21 use to park their cars in there until the owner didn’t want them to anymore.

R*1 was quartered there with 34 & 21 when I covered in R*1 after the FH on 43 St was destroyed.
