Jose was very kind in helping me out in my visit and assisted me in purchasing there amazing T-shirt's for my family. These were the 3 shirts that I bought to support that fire station wish they had more of the these shirts cause they are a hit in my opinion especially the River North style and my personal was Wile E Coyote I'm willing to purchase them again even if I'm already back home in Los Angeles. Jose can you make this happen cause I would love to still get more if possible. The way you see the pictures that's the order of the patch that's in the front of each T-shirts.

It was like an army in their full "gear" descending on the lobby and into the building. They were prepared and had it been worse, we would all have been saved! I also dealt with 4 paramedics (not sure if from this station particularly)- 2 treated me in lobby, 2 took me in an ambulance to local hospital. All were not only fast, quick workers and efficient but so kind and caring and helpful. I am so grateful. Count on this team for sure!

These guys are absolutely wonderful and so Naperville Fire Department and car 47 is one of the greatest assets that Naperville has to offer. I want people to know that!!!!!! I understand there are much bigger and worse emergencies out there and that just makes me more confident that these guys come with so much drive and ambition to help and assist from the lower level like I called them even though it's a big deal to me because I don't feel like being stuck on the floor for a day, but I know they will handle a catastrophe with the highest form of professionalism I've seen it from my own perspective and I'm so blessed to have a resource to rely on and call when I need like the Naperville Fire Department car 47!! Great job guys, thank you so much!

Gladly I was staying with my folks in south Naperville when I had a mid-night medical emergency. They called 911 and the crew from the fire department down the block was there within 5 minutes. (My only regret is that I was unconscious with 6 firemen in my bedroom, haha!) It doesn't get much faster than that, and I'm very grateful for their speedy response time and professional care.

When our carbon monoxide detector started beeping, we changed the batteries. Two days later, it…read morebegan to beep again. My husband told me about all of this while I was at work, and I didn't want to come home to a dead dog or husband, so I asked him to call the non-emergency number. Upon calling the non-emergency number, he was instructed to call 911. Reluctantly, he did. They said they were on their way. The nearest fire house is about ONE mile away. My husband waited outside with the dog, and saw a fire truck nearing. They turned down the wrong street. He saw them come back up the street and then proceed south on the main road - the opposite direction of our home. He then got a phone call from dispatch. They told him they couldn't find our house! Our house is not the easiest to find since we are on a main road with 45 MPH traffic. But...shouldn't police and fire have the most sophisticated GPS available? Or at least the Google Maps app on their phones? Even the Vita Bella pizza boy found our house in a snow storm! When they finally arrived, they explained that our address is difficult to read (black numbers on brown brick) and said we should paint it white. Okay, makes sense, but it's still unnerving that the fire department had trouble finding our home. They later told my husband something like, "if it was a real fire, we'd have found it." Sooo...basically you're saying that you won't be able to find my house unless there is smoke BILLOWING from the roof? We replaced an expired carbon monoxide detector, and the firefighters were very nice and told us we did what we were supposed to do. But really, PFPD? I hope we never have a *real* emergency.

All I can say is next time please knock on the doors of houses nearby as I never heard the sirens. I just heard loud voices. Fire truck ladder hanging over the roof of that house, a fireman inside with the hose, fireman on the roof cutting through to let smoke out. You think too bad when you see it passing by BUT when it is right next door those men went in like bulls to tackle that fire and put it out in about 25 minutes. My heart racing watching flames peek out by the gutters of that home and the fire men hosing our house down. Winds pushed east blowing all the smoke away from nearby homes. My dogs new that was not a good smell and started pacing inside. You wonder will it be ok? Should I get my dogs and run? These fireman ROCK and put their lives at risk and I am ever grateful. They stayed for about 4 hours after to ensure it would not rekindle. God bless you all for saving our homes nearby!!!!!!!! Brick is a good risk - it does not burn and I am ever thankful we were spared.

About two years ago, my apartment building at the corner of Irving Park and Southport caught on…read morefire. In retrospect, I think the now defunct JoyBlue was trying to collect insurance, which i understand because it sucked, but a heads-up would have been nice. The building lacked smoke detectors, which is a problem in itself, but when you're passed out drunk, it's really a problem. I awoke when I heard one of my cats choking for air. By the time, I got up, tried to dress myself, and attempted to grab some cats, I realized it was not just someone burning bacon. The lights were on, but I could not see and I could not breathe. After trying the front door, I crawled blindly towards the back door. I'm a pretty calm person, but after I saw the flames out the second door, I thought I was toast. That's when I heard the fire department yelling. They were wonderful. They carried us down three flights of stairs. They didn't give me shit for having kittens rolled up in a shirt. They promptly told the friend that was staying over to shut the hell up when she started whining like a baby about her purse. They didn't stare or mention the fact that I was nearly naked, just grabbed me a blanket. They were genuinely concerned about what pets were left inside and found them. They apologized for breaking my things while trying to break out the windows. And after the fire was out, without asking, they made a special trip back in to try and find some salvageable shoes for me to wear. But after all this, I think my favorite part, was the ribbing they gave the rookie for mistakingly saving my mannequin.

On November 1 around 6 a.m., some cool person decided to set the big old garbage can in the alley…read moreon fire. Unfortunately, this can was in between our garage and our neighbors. Fortunately, despite my post-Halloween, half-drunken/half-asleep state, I heard the loud 'boom', investigated, and discovered my garage was on fire. Happy November. After trying to unkink my hose with little luck, while simultaneously screaming my head off, I called 9-1-1 and was met with an operator who wasn't listening so well. In any case, after repeating myself several times, the fire department arrived. I'd guess it was a minute and a half, TOPS, after finishing the 9-1-1 call. I think I spent more time on the call than I did waiting for CFD to show up. The fire was put out with MINIMAL damage to ours or the neighbors' garage (some melted gutters, siding and a tiny hole in the wall). No exploding cars or major calamity. So, major props to CFD (the station just north of Wabansia on Pulaski) for getting to our house lickety split. Thanks!!!

This is a unique fire house, and a pretty adorable one at that. Established in 1902, it's…read moreoriginally was home to Hose Company 2, and when Engine Company 98 was created that company took over. It was designed by C.F. Hermann and is amongst the oldest in the city. Built to look like a medieval fortress, it retains some of those old-timey touches one associates with a firehouse, like using a brass pole (there are two!); yet, it has been modernized to turn the prior stable into the kitchen, and what once was a hayloft is now a workout room. Made of limestone,and is the only fire station in the city with landmark status. It's a highly visible house given its location on Chicago Avenue just east of Michigan Avenue, behind the Water Tower. By many accounts it's a friendly house, perhaps in part because not only do the neighbors have a good rapport with the firefighters but it attracts a lot of tourists. If you're a visitor or a local wandering near Seneca Park or the Water Tower, you might be greeted warmly by these heroes.
