Shocked 79 isn't in the mix being at 62/32

79 has they’re own boxes back so they’re location don’t matter anymore

Not quite sure what that means. 79 will go to Fordham Rd at the Concourse from 62's quarters? What due would they be? A lot of companies closer to that intersection.
Same new situation for L37 from Bailey Avenue?

Might make a bit of a difference - from Briggs, 79 is 1st due at Jerome/Kingsbridge - from where 79 is for now (62/32) - there are at least 7 Bx. Engines closer, even 95 from Inwood is closer.

Are they still at 62 or somewhere else??

Back in the 70’s and early 80’s 75/33 were first due to Jerome and Kingsbridge

Wow. e69 from 143 in Harlem 5th due. Back then most of university heights, Bedford park, and Kingsbridge were a smattering of PD’s and farmland. The apartment buildings came in the 20’s and 30’s. And E69 didn’t have a 450 HP diesel to get up there. No 207 st or 225 st bridges. Must have taken E69 45 minutes to get up into 79 area. And no radios. Once they left quarters next contact was most likely when the arrived at the box to find the fire out or a pile of smoldering rubble. Great revisit of history. Nice post. Thanks for sharing.
