If you are into things-fire fighting, then this is the museum for you. It exhibits equipment and memorabilia related to fire fighting from the 18th century to 1917. Upstairs is a line up of old fire engines from the 1890's onwards. There is also a permanent memorial to the 343 members of the New York City Fire Department / Emergency Medical Services who perished at the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001.
