Firehouse: "I'm still useful, aren't I?"

Yes, looks neglected, almost as if emotionally.

Sort of sad. I bet it was really nice at one time. So Motts did you go inside it at all? I bet there would be some neat things in there.

Looks like the old station used to hold two engines and possibly a tanker.

The firehouse still stands. But the rest of the Cochoran building is gone.

The firehouse is still their. The town of Islip is doing a restoration of it. It's the only standing building from the site.
