Congratulations to BC Thomas McCarthy B-7 Commander who served the FDNY for 43 years and is working his last tour tonight. We wish you a very happy retirement and we are truly grateful for all the years you have dedicated to our Firefighters.

Festive celebrations, flickering lights and winter greens are hallmarks of the holiday season, but they also present fire risks that can quickly turn this festive time of year into a devastating one. Carefully decorating your home can help make your holidays safer.

Have a safe and wonderful Thanksgiving!

As we enter the holiday season, we would like to share some important cooking safety facts. We know that cooking is the number one cause to many of the home fires and home fire injuries. Please be safe this holiday season.
