I saw something disturbing the other night. At 4:30am I was stopped at the light at Riverside and either Vineland or Lankershim, can't remember, I was looking at the homeless encampment under the overpass when a Fire Dept. ambulance or paramedic box truck traveling south entered the underpass area slowed down and started blaring its sirens, no lights, zigzagged from one side to the other, then turned off the siren as soon as it exited. All a mean-spirited attempt to annoy those sleeping in tents. I did not get a truck number, wish I had. Is this sanctioned or tolerated behavior? If yes, it is shameful. If not, since I didn't get a truck number, you might want to put the word out that many in the community would be offended by this behavior.

There are 2 Fire Station 27 next to each other. The old one turned into the Los Angeles Fire…read moreDepartment Museum next door (address shows Cahuenga but you enter from Cole Ave or De Longpre) and this Fire Station 27 is the newer and active fire station. I was babysitting this kid taking him to the Fire Museum next door but they were about to close and the kid haven't had enough of fire stuff for the day. The only way to get him away from the doors so that the museum can close was to call his attention to the fire truck heading towards this station. We kept a distance away on the curb from the station garage doors. I was hoping the crew would wave to the kid (and he waves back enthusiastically), then close the door and then I would drive him home. Firefighters need their rest from getting called out all the time! But, the captain was incredibly kind to call to us while helping the truck back into the station, and invite us in. What gave away his rank was that his uniform differed in color from the rest of the crew and the crew didn't disperse as soon as the garage door came down. They watched their boss present. The captain also later confirmed his rank in conversation. I thought it was funny that the captain grilled the kid pretty hard. I'm not sure what milestones kids are supposed to reach at certain ages but this kid is not quite 4 years old yet he was able to answer all of captain's questions correctly. They were actually a bit technical for a preschooler! But then, when asked "what do firefighters do in their downtime when not out on a call?" the kid answered, "start a fire." ROFL. Not sure if the kid is going to grow up to be a firefighter or a comic. We got to see the different trucks (engine, truck, pumper), some of the insides of said trucks (who knew that besides the extremely long ladder of a tiller truck there are also a half dozen ladders inside of various lengths?), and what the mobile command center (back of the battalion chief's truck) looks like. It's not just physical work of putting out a fire. Firefighting involves physics and technology - it gets more interesting as I learn more about it. I won't be back so that these guys can have their peace and do their jobs saving lives and structures. Next time, I'll probably take this kid to the police station just around the block from here, bother them instead. I'm grateful to Station 27 for the welcoming and educational experience!

This happened a year ago, but it still sticks with me. I had…read moreto call 911 for help getting up 2X 2, 3:30am. I had a sudden medical episode, 2 big friendly EMT came. I had an appointment to see Doctor specialist that morning. Later at 7:00am I was in extreme pain and needed the ER. 6:30 is shift change. They sent 2 baby firefighters. Not EMTs. A young girl, smallish and a 23 y.o. guy, also not too big, not yet an EMT. I couldnt walk and was in screaming pain. These 2 raw untrained firemen were overwelled. Barely carried me down a few stairs, and put me on a guerny to hospital ER. They were untrained, unprepared and acted like I was bothering them. I don't know what crew they were. Shocking that the Captain sent out 2 small unqualified, unprepared, probationary "Firefighters" on a medical emergency.

We were lucky to have her give us a tour! Our son got to "play" inside an ambulance, fire engine, and a fire truck. He was on cloud nine! They offer tours from 10 AM to 11:30 AM and 1 PM to 4 PM.

Today four firemen (actually three firemen and one firewoman captain), followed by four hazmat…read morefiremen, came to my home and made me feel a whole lot better. They were sweet and calm and very helpful, and they even came quickly, sirens blaring, though we were not an immediate emergency. The initial firepeople confirmed that our apartment still had suspicious fumes, and called out the hazmat people. As the contamination occurred on Monday, and we were put in a hotel until today, it was very important for us to find out if our place was still toxic or not now. The hazmat men ran two different machines through our home and told us it was safe. We had explained the situation, which involved our home being flooded with fumes via a resurfacing job done without sealing or ventilation in an adjoining apartment, and they insisted the apartment manager provided them with the list of chemicals used. The company who did the work claimed no one was in the office, and the hazmat people then informed us that as soon as they received the list on Monday they would begin an investigation, and likely cite, the company who poisoned our apartment. We couldn't get over how efficient, proactive and calming the firepeople were; it's no wonder they're called heroes.

Firefighting is really hard work. I wanted to write this review to revive some of the attention…read morethat have died related to the recent wildfires, in hopes that folks will donate $$ to their foundation and support these firefighters in our city. LAFD Fire Station 58 is located on a slight bend on south Robertson, south of the Beverly Hills city limits, where traffic can get quite fast if the light is green. It's near the Robertson library and not far from where I work. So when I got a repeat side gig to watch a kid nearby for a couple of hours one early evening, I thought of the fine firefighters down the street, a slurpee at 7-Eleven across the street and the rest of the time at the library for a great time. 9 times out of 10 when I drive by, Station 58's garage door is closed but unlucky for them, they left their garage door open. Aside from hearing the sirens so much that I've kind of tuned them out altogether, I learned that this is a very active fire station not only because of the area of land they cover but also because central Dispatch would send their units all over the city. While we were there, an ambulance had to do a tandem shuffle and then go to LAX in rush hour traffic. Size-wise, it is nowhere as big as Beverly Hills' Headquarters but comparable to some of the LA fire stations from Brentwood to Koreatown that I have seen. Personnel-wise, here they have a female firefighter! And she is Asian! Doubly rare... and she was pretty cool. I learned that most firefighters will opt to use the stairs at this station if it's not a super duper urgent call because the landing from sliding down the pole hurts their knees and feet. I wonder why they don't install better padding at the bottom? Anyway, it was a short visit because EVERYONE got called out. At the end, it was me and the boy all alone in an empty fire station garage, so we walked ourselves out. Anyway, the year is almost over so make a donation to firefighters and write it off on your taxes!
