Yes they must follow all codes of the city. They are in the planning stages of redoing the bldg to be fitted with sprinklers (entire bldg) and many other upgrades to comply with the newer codes.

Seth As said by many other members thank you for you hard work and time put in to the site. Keep up the great work it is a great tool to have. Do what you have to to keep this great site up and running the way it was meant to be. Cut the trouble makers out of the loop. Thanks again

They are trained to put small fire with can's and to evac the bldg. They may have some type of SCBA but not sure. FDNY goes on the alarm from the central station as it is activated just like all class 3 alarms in the city.

All high rise bldg have a fire brigade it is bldg maintenance staff and security personnel. Under the oders of the Fire Safety Director again all high rise bldgs must have one. Check local law 5 from the Rules of the city of NY. Hope this helps.

That is a light for scene lighting not the opticom system. If you are talking about the white slim box on the front top of the cab. Chris

If I remember right the Yellow Macks were assigned to the following companies. Manhattan: E-4 / 10 / 58 Bronx : 41 / 42 / 45 / 46 / 73 / 94 Brooklyn : 277 (Later assigned to E-263 in Queens) And the only Yellow ALF was a 1980 assigned to E-65 Ok please help if I'm wrong on any of these, Chris

I know for sure in 1970 Engine 71 had one that was a 54' articulating squirt boom than later it was fitted with the 55' telescopic boom and assigned to Engine 70. The other squirt was assigned as a second piece to an unknown company at this time. The unit that was assigned to Engine 70 was later sold and was in service with the Lake Carmel FD I think they got in 1987 ( I may be wrong). The other unit I do know saw service as a foam unit with FDNY starting in 1980. Sorry that is the best I can do, I will try and find what company had the second squirt. I hope I can find and old timer that remembers but I will work on it for you. Chris

I like what you did to the front page today it looks great and is very easy to work. Keep up the great work and Thank you for giving all of us a great site use.

Ok how about "The Wheel House" or "The Pilots Chair" or "The Cockpit" Just my 1 1/2 cents worth.

42 Engine is not a single bay house a bunch of ears back ladder 56 was with them before they built the fire house on Webster and 187. I dont think you would be able to see the doors on 42 quarters anyway as they face north and 175 and monroe is not in view of the cross bronx.
