FDNY Headquarters The New York City Fire Department,…read moreofficially the Fire Department of the City of New York (FDNY), is an American department of the government of New York City that provides fire protection, technical rescue services, primary response to biological, chemical, and radioactive hazards, and emergency medical services responses to the five boroughs of New York City. The New York City Fire Department is the largest Municipal Fire Department in the United States. In fact it's one of the largest on the planet! I'm continuously amazed at the huge responsibilities that they have twenty four hours a day, three hundred and sixty five days a year. It's my opinion that FDNY needs more resources considering our aging buildings. There's a lot of Fire Education needed for the general public. They are serving around 8 million NYC residents. People move in and out of the city. I let them know how much I appreciate their service every time I see them. I'm recommending you do the same!

I was admiring the male firefighters jacket. He didn't hesitate when I asked if I could take a photo.

I am sending this review because I still have not had the time to pen a letter to the department. I've lost his ID# but remember his name well. Anthony Russo is a very compassionate, intelligent and gentle man. On both occasions his main concern was my Mom. He never talked over her like she wasn't there. He cared for her comfort for the whole transport. My Mom was bed ridden. At the ER he was in full control of the situation. It appeared to me that he had the process in mind and offered help to the hospital staff that welcomed him. I wish I saved the names of the two technicians that accompanied him because they were awesome too. In closing I have to thank all of FDNY for their excellence and unwavering support over all the years. I am Clare, the one banging pots and pans when a truck passes. ;-)

The building where my mother lives had an issue for over 8 days making her life unbearable and the City Housing Authority did not respond or even returned calls. My mother is an elderly woman needing assistance and no response from Housing is disturbing. One of the Captains from this Fire House took the time to talk to me about the concern, although there was nothing he and or his Firefighters could have done without causing undue hardship to the other tenants, he took the time to listen and make useful suggestions. The men and women of FDNY should be commended for their professionalism and their genuine care for the community they serve. I regret not getting the name of the Captain, but I want to acknowledge him and his House for all they do everyday!

Much better and more modern facilities than the Old York Town Police Department…read more The New York City Fire Department are pretty wonderful in many ways (except maybe on Law & Order when they get into fights with the cops due to shady goings on), and a lot more friendly than some of the other New York officials you might encounter. They've done a lot of Brave things over the years, not least on 9/11. It's too sad to talk about that, to be honest. I still don't think we have a clue who or what was behind that and I hope that someday everyone behind it will be brought to justice so all these brave people can have a little more peace, perhaps. This is a great house for a great crew, and everyone in the city should be thankful that they do what they do so well.

130am indeed. The carbon monoxide alarm goes off. I was thinking if I ignored it, it would stop…read more maybe the battery was low. But, alas, no. 4 quick beeps and then a pause and 4 quick beeps again. Sigh. The back of the detector says to get to fresh air immediately and call 911. Unhappily, we don our winter garb and head outside. We decide to try to call 311 first, since our apartment is the only one going off. Alvin, my very nice 311 operator, informs me that we can try and open all the windows and wait outside and see if it continues to go off and then call 911, or we can just call and get it over with. We are sleepy and grumpy. This is going to take all night. But since it seems like we'll have to call anyway, Maritess convinces me to make the call. T-Mobile freakin dropped my call to 911 four times in a row. Really??!! You'll be hearing from me later today for sure. In less than 2 minutes, we hear the sirens. They've got to be for us. We wave at the truck as it pulls up. Speedy lets the head of the truck into our apartment and another truck pulls up. Holy moly. Now I start getting scared...2 trucks? For one carbon monoxide alarm? Maybe this is a little more serious than I thought. They all start piling into the apartment building as we stand outside, and my first thought is "My room is messy, this is why my mother always tells me to keep my room clean! Ahhhh!!" My second thought is, "Hot damn." I think Ladder 132 may be one of the best looking crews that I have seen. Sleepy and grumpy no more, for sure! I really hope they don't go in my room, it's definitely messy. And I really hope we don't have dirty dishes in the sink. They're gone in just a little bit, turns out we have a defective carbon monoxide detector. They recommend we contact the super for a new one, and bid us a good night. 5 stars for their rapid response time, had there really been something bad going on, they couldn't have gotten there any faster. 5 stars for the rugged good looks. 5 stars for figuring everything out super fast. 5 stars for being so darn hot. I'm sorry we had to drag you guys out, but I sure am glad you were there. Do you guys like muffins? Cos I sure wouldn't mind making them for you. I love the FDNY. LOVE. And if you don't, you have something seriously wrong with your head.

Not cause they lie or cheat or steal - but cause fire comes first for em. These fellas gots balls the size of the moon. While all ya'll (me included) are running OUT of a fire, they're going in. Manly men. They smell like musk. And break things. And know how to use a screwdriver. And put other people ahead of them. All the time. ::swoon:: thank your local fire department. For realz, especially the vollies. If you can bake, bring em cookies. If you can't, have your woman bake them cookies. If your woman can't bake...well...get a new one. And hug FDNY. And buy them a beer down in the meat packing district on St Paddies day. These boys can toss back brews better then me - hell, they taught me all I know about beers, yo.
