Thats all great, but thats how it's been done for years nothing new but good luck to Stamford,its men and I guess HME for building what Stamford wants.

Not a fan of HME at all, but I guess it's what the city wants, whether or not the members want them.

One would think they would have gone with something larger and more specialized like this for their rescue:

New Rochelle and Stamford are KIND OF similar....but Stamford's bigger but has a smaller rescue? I'm sure Stamford's apparatus comiteee did the best they could with the funds and contract they had to work with.
