Fire service history is on display at the museum on Spring Street, and 9/11 is what gives it its heart.
The museum contains many lessons for children, and that's what gives the firehouse-turned-museum an enduring power.
"We have an entire generation of people who weren't either alive on September 11th, 2001, or were so young that they don't remember it as a first-person account," Brown said."This is the big draw for the younger audience in here." Going back earlier into the FDNY's history, visitors can find artifacts from colonial times, an exhibit on the Great New York Fire of 1776 and photos taken by Jill Freedman in the 1970s.
"Jill Freedman was a very well-known street photographer, and in the 1970s, she embedded herself with fire companies in the South Bronx and Harlem. This is before there were women in the department," Brown said."She wanted to show not only the bravery at the scene of fires but also the camaraderie and what happened behind the scenes."
The museum is full of reminders that bravery goes hand-in-hand with this tough job and ultimate sacrifice we must never forget.
