I think that now we are the only Fire Department in New York State WITHOUT a RESCUE. I guess that I come from the old school of Firefighting. Now all our rigs are busting at the seams in every compartment with all of our equipment that we have to carry. Go figure!!

For a person that grew up in the Village of Tuckahoe for all of my life, and now at the ripe old age of 53, I can tell you that the "TUCKHAOE QUARRY" goes way beyond Fisher Ave and Marbledale Rd. There was and still is a vein of marble that runs from Leewood Dr. off the Bronx River Pkwy south to Eton Pl. in Eastchester. which would be the first quarry. The second quarry was on Marbledale Rd between Lincoln Ave & Fisher Ave, which would be the second one. The next quarry was a block south on Marbledale Rd. from Glen Rd to just south of Jackson Ave in Tuckahoe. The first two quarries now do have water in them but the third one was filled in with dirt some time in the early 60's or so. That land was at one time a dirt parking lot and now all it is is a flat piece of land with a very historic past. The vein of stone ran for about a mile and a half to two miles or so. A large amount of our Marble was used in Washington DC, St Patricks Cathedral, in NYC, & Lyndhurst Castle in Tarrytown to name a few. http://academic.brooklyn.cuny.edu/geology/...kahoeMarble.htm

Just wondering, since this was a Working Fire with 4 Engines, Ladder 16, and Tower Ladder 17, was the Eastchester Fire Dept. SAFETY OFFICER on the scene when this incident occurred? Also, I hope that the TWO Brother Firefighters who were injured at this call are doing OK tonight. Great stop Gr # 4 and Capt Lou.
