These limited edition fine art prints are signed and numbered on acid free rag paper using archival inks rated to resist fading for 100 years under recommended display conditions.
FDNY Engine 55 at 363 Broome Street near Mott is especially reconizable because of its large terra cotta identifying label across the top of the front entrance. The firehouse was designed by R. H. Robertson and finished in 1899.
On September 11, 2001, Engine 55 responded immediately after the first plane hit the North Tower of the World Trade Center. Like many FDNY units, they raced into Lower Manhattan to assist with evacuation and firefighting efforts.
Tragically, five members of Engine 55 lost their lives when the Twin Towers collapsed. These men were among the 343 FDNY firefighters who made the ultimate sacrifice that day.
Today, Engine 55 continues to serve New York City proudly, carrying the legacy
of bravery and sacrifice from September 11.
