Captured Moment: Boro Park’s Firehouse

YS GOLD 

This week’s captured moment takes us to the edge of Boro Park, and to the firehouse that has stood there for more than a century, and continues to serve the neighborhood in the unfortunate case of a fire. 

Can any of our readers pinpoint the location of this Boro Park icon? 

___ 

Answer to last week’s captured moment: 

As many of our readers have correctly identified, the toy store in question—formerly a kosher butcher shop— is none other than the recently-closed Shopwise which has served the community for many decades from this location on 16th Avenue and 44th Street.
