Red Rover Eng Co.34
Built in 1854 as ‘Howard Engine Company No. 34,” known as “Red Rover,” this engine company first organized in 1807 as a volunteer fire-fighting company. It eventually was absorbed by the FDNY and became Engine No. 24. In 1975 during city’s financial crisis it was decommissioned, and lay empty.
Today a private residence, wonder if the brass fire pole still lingers
