E205 might gain some first due boxes with the move? Not far from E224 to begin with

I’m well aware.
But you said that 207 would be better..
Either house they moved to, they would be losing their 1st due boxes, so why is one better then another?
From 279 it’s a straight ride down either smith, Clinton or Hicks to their “normal” area. Which is what my point was. One wasn’t necessarily better then the other.
Every neighborhood in the city is effected when they lose a Firehouse, even temporary. Bklyn Heights -Carrol Gardens is one of the most congested with narrow streets and heavy traffic congestion. E -202,205,207 and even 226 will be greatly delayed and expect response times to increase 2x.
The surrounding areas, including Downtown, Carrol Gardens and waterfront, has seen huge development in recent years. Another area where the city needs to reevaluate response times and population density. The loss of E204 will be continually felt and the temporary relocation of 224 should be considered with any relocation of any of those adjoining companies.

Does anyone know why?
It’s too bad 204’s quarters is in such disrepair. Would have been a good spot for 224 to go for the next year +.
Why what?

Just saw the order little while ago...good info
a fax number?? that still exists?? lol
99% a renovation of quarters... especially the apparatus floor.... some locations they can store the rig in a pen outdoors but i don't think this location would lend itself to that convenience
Ouch.... they should be out for awhile.

Indeed a very tight/congested area on Hicks Street. Like mentioned earlier BK HTS blocks are tight and narrow, they’re among the oldest in Brooklyn. Hence the need for L118 tiller.
