2 Alarm Fire in a Home on Eastern Pkwy
At around 12:00pm this afternoon a fire broke out in a home on Eastern Pkwy between New York and Nostrand. FDNY responded to the call and immediately began battling the fire, which was upgraded right away to a 2nd alarm and more units reasponded.
The fire was placed under control soon thereafter. Damage to the home was mostly to the top floor, which bystanders described as a burning Matzah Oven. The home does not belong to any Yidden.

the colorful board is the “command center” in a scene like that. it allows the chief in charge to see where everybody is,which floor their on,all updated by the firfighters as they move around. so in case theirs an evacuation they can make sure everyones out

Shows why the FDNY are called New York’s Bravest. It really takes a lot to go into buildings like that – and the pay is nothing special. Great job, NYFD.

Thank you to our wonderful Firemen of FDNY for once asain risking their lives to make sure that there were no civilians trapped in this inferno! Then they continued to risk their own safety while limiting the spread of the fire. They are NY’s Bravest and they are good, decent people helping people…
Excellent photos also! Great job.
