Watch now (14 min) | Obsolete infrastructure can be beautiful in its decay, but not when it fails, spilling potentially deadly hunks of steel onto private property. When Siren No. 184 came down, we got the call and rushed to help.
Last we saw it, it was in the Bureau of Street Lighting storage yard behind Vermonica. We were unable to interest CD8 or CD15 in repairing and reinstalling it in the public right of way.
I enjoyed the air raid siren segment. There are 150 air raid sirens left from the 1950s and the condition of Air Raid Siren No. 184 means there are many air raid sirens which pose a danger to the public. I hope city hall responds. Thank you for the article.
WHERE IS THE MODEL 5/7????
