Local 1 Civil Service FDNY Plumbers were instrumental in re-building the Engine Company 55 Firehouse in lower Manhattan after the firehouse was seriously damaged by fire in mid February 2008, while the firemen were out on a run fighting a fire themselves.
Attention to detail was critical in each phase of the repair and restoration to ensure that all original architectural signatures of Engine Company 55's Beaux-Arts style firehouse, built in 1898, were not compromised. A key component of the project was having the plumbing & heating systems completely revamped and updated. The job was completed two months ahead of schedule, and is another Union Job done right with pride & craftsmanship by members of Plumbers Local Union No.1.
