We were walking towards the Ghostbusters building and happened to see this tiny museum, so nipped in for a visit and it was well worth it. Full of historical items, including full-size fire trucks, and a 9/11 memorial. Try to avoid visiting alongside a school group, as the small size of the building means it can be a bit overwhelming!

This museum was close to where we were staying so we decided to visit it.. Very interesting if you like to see old fire fighting equipment. The room devoted to the Firefighters that died in 9/11 is quite moving - even more so for us than the 9/11 Memorial (probably because the 9/11 Memorial and it's museum is still being... More

Great little museum. Well worth seeking out. Bargain entrance fee. One of most poignant and lovely small 9/11 memorial sections in the city in my opinion. Very interesting.

My husband was really excited when I told him about this museum, so we included it on our recent stay in NYC. I knew he was going to love it, but I was surprised at how much I liked it too. It's on the smaller side but filled with tons of interesting artifacts, and knowing practically nothing about firefighting prior... More

We visit New York often and were traveling with friends. It's freezing and we were looking for something different to do. I thought this museum would be a perfect fit for my girlfriends husband but as it turns out, I loved it. This museum is small with firendly staff and fire fighters who assist with school groups and answer questions.... More

We really enjoyed this museum, spent about 2 hours going through the various rooms. Interesting to see the equipment up close. Reasonably priced gift shop. The volunteers were helpful and welcoming. Many photos and exhibits make you appreciate how selfless and dedicated firefighters have always been. 911 room was a solemn, overwhelming tribute, very moving to see the names and... More

I was just walking past this place and wasn't going to go in. I decided to go in and im so glad I did. Captain bob picard showed me around. He was so helpful and so friendly and it was a wonderful experience. The 9/11 memorial was very moving

Has no thing to offer except t of a few old fire trucks. The only exhibit is a tiny 9-11 room and they have no education on how the fire department works and no history of Fite equipment. If for children youvcan go to the FDNY zone and for adults there is no that ng to see

If you are into firefighting, you must visit this museum. Nice collection of items all the way from the 19th century (if I remember correct) to present day. There is also a room dedicated to 343 firefighters who died when the towers came down. Museum is not too expensive ($8), so I recommend visiting here even if you are not... More
