According to the Mayor's Press Conference, the 9-1-1 call was received at 0931 and the first FDNY unit was on the scene at 0933 (L-26?).  Two minute response time - FDNY excellence again.  Were E58/L26 in house four blocks away?  That's a quick response.

 

[dg116]

My guess is they probably heard the explosion and were out the door before the first call came in.

 

[XPFD3]

R.4 being special called to the staging area.  R.6 in service and relocating to R.4.

 

[FDNYSTATENISLAND]

Who staffs R 6?

 

[NYBravest82]

Who staffs R 6?

They'll either call in a detail or have some SOC members from either the Rock or SOC HQ
