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.
How to reach the New York City Fire Museum

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
