FDNY responds to fire scare at Brooklyn War Memorial in Cadman Plaza Park
Firefighters from Ladder Company 110 climbed to the Memorial’s roof as other firefighters inspected the building, which also contains NYC Parks Department and Cadman Park Conservancy offices.
FDNY Battalion Chief Sean Danis determined that the smoke was issuing from a boiler which was being cleaned that morning by building staff. After the boiler was shut down, the smoke disappeared.
