  • Engine 249 and Ladder 113
    ENGINE 249 AND LADDER 113 FLATBUSH AND THE CAMP Engine 249 and Ladder 113 were placed in service on January 20, 1896. Then it was not part of the FDNY and the fire trucks were not painted white over red or diesel powered. One hundred years ago both, rigs were pulled buy a team of horses and were painted a 2 tone green. Engine 249 and Ladder 113 were called Engine 49 and Ladder 23 back then and were part of the City of Brooklyn, the fourth largest city in the country. One hundred years ago a new tradition was started, a paid fire department, replacing the volunteer system in the town of Flatbush that had been in existence since 1821. One of the six towns making up the City of Brooklyn, Flatbush was first settled in 1652. This rural village would remain a sleepy town until the mid 1880's, at which time the railroad lines were extended through the town. Flatbush became the suburbs for the fourth largest City in America, Brooklyn. The town of Flatbush was annexed by the City of Brooklyn on April 24, 1894. The Brooklyn Fire Department kept the volunteers active until the City could build fire stations, buy equipment and hire manpower. For their services, each of the volunteer fire companies were paid $1,000.00 a year. The Flatbush Department had one engine, five hose companies and three ladder companies. The Brooklyn department had to hire members from the Flatbush Department to man the new companies. Over three hundred members belong to the Flatbush Department, but only forty-four could be picked.

  • Fire Engine Company 253 (Originally Engine Company 53 I Later Engine Company 153), 2425-2427 86Th Street, Brooklyn
    Landmarks Preservation Commission September 15, 1998, Designation List 297 LP-1986 Fire Engine Company 253 (originally Engine Company 53 I later Engine Company 153), 2425-2427 86th Street, Brooklyn. Built 1895-96; architect Parfitt Brothers. Landmark site: Borough of Brooklyn Tax Map Block 6859, Lot 67. On April 21, 1998, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation of Fire Engine Company 253, and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 8). The hearing was duly advertised according to the provisions of law. One witness spoke in favor of designation. There were no speakers in opposition to designation. The New York City Fire Department has indicated support for designation. Summary Fire Engine Company 253, built in 1895-96 for the City of Brooklyn, is a major design by the prominent architectural firm of Parfitt Brothers. The two-story structure with tower was constructed to provide fire protection in Bensonhurst, a suburban development in the southwestern portion of Kings County, between the towns of Bath Beach and Gravesend. Erected on 86th Street, a major transportation route, its Dutch Renaissance Revival design alludes to the area's roots as one of the first six towns established in Kings County. It is faced in tawny brick with complementary brownstone details and a set of stepped pediments, features that appeared in civic structures built in northern Europe and the American colonies during the early seventeenth century. In a neighborhood where few buildings predate the consolidation of Greater New York and the arrival of the elevated subway, Fire Engine Company 253 stands out as a rare example of late nineteenth-century public architecture, symbolizing this district's annexation by Brooklyn in 1894, as well as civic expectations for the areas' s continued development.

CASSANO, Chief of Department 9 MetroTech Center • Brooklyn, New York 11201 www.nyc.gov/fdny FDNY PROUDLY SERVING NEW YORK FDNY can trace its earliest history back to the Dutch settlement of New Amsterdam in the 17th century under Peter Stuyvesant. In 1648, as Director General, he issued the New World’s first directive on fire prevention and firefighting. The New York City Fire Department originally was chartered in 1865 under the name Metropolitan Fire Department. It included the separate Cities of New York and Brooklyn and replaced firefighting volunteers with paid Firefighters. With the consolidation of New York City in 1896, the Fire Department of New York expanded to include most other paid and voluntary fire companies then operating across the small neighborhoods and villages located in the outlying boroughs. Since its incorporation as a Department in 1865, FDNY has fought more than two million fires in New York City.

    Item No. 1 Emancipation Proclamation “A Deliberate Attempt to Excite Our Slaves to Insurrection” 1. [Alabama] [Watts, Thomas H.]: INAUGURAL ADDRESS OF GOV. WATTS. GENTLEMEN OF THE SENATE AND HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES… [Montgomery? 1863]. 16pp, caption title [as issued]. Stitched, untrimmed with very wide margins. Light foxing, some spotting. An attractive, rare, and completely unsophisticated Confederate imprint. Very Good. "The danger of war is heard all around us, and the sighs of our brave fill every passing breeze." Governor Watts affirms that, in seceding from the Union, "the sovereign people of Alabama...only exercised a right belonging to every free people." He offers much legal justification for this course of action, and scorns the "flattering anticipations" of the North "that the large mass of the people in the South were willing to submit to Black Republican rule." Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation "was as impotent as it was unconstitutional," and "a deliberate attempt to excite our slaves to insurrection. It is an invitation, yea an urgent solicitation, to an ignorant race, recognized as our property by the Constitution Lincoln has sworn to support to commit murder, rapine, rape, arson, and all manner of diabolical deeds." Watts's fire-eating speech promises victory if the South stands firm. A rare Confederate imprint. Parrish & Willingham 2665 [1- Samford U]. OCLC 21550974 [2- Samford, U AL] [as of July 2017].
