Harrisburg City Fire Station Number 2

Today's post is a continuation of the Harrisburg City Fire Department shot from the air. On Tuesday November 5, 2007 I posted Station 8 and on Friday December 14, 2007 I posted the HACC fire training area. Today's post is Station 2 located in the 100 block of North 16Th Street. The station houses Tower 1, Wagon 4, Engine 2, Rescue 1, the Battalion Chief, one of Dauphin County's Hazmat trucks and the city's mobile command post. Sounds like allot of stuff, but most is junk that never leaves the building.

The view of the firehouse is from the rear, the five drive through bays are on the left, the hose tower can be seen hovering above, the court yard is to the right of the tower and the bunk room is in the lower right hand corner of the building. Stations 1 and 2 are identical firehouses.

Some of the streets seen in the photograph are State, 17Th, Walnut, Hoerner, 15Th, Whitehall and the 1600 and 1700 blocks of Regina Street
