FDNY lieutenant praises Bay Ridge community and shares personal connection.
Staff Report / nyclocal.org
Lieutenant Jimmy Rimassa has been serving at Engine 241 in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn since May. He describes the community as diverse, likening it to a melting pot where global events are reflected locally. Rimassa has a personal connection to the area, as the members of Engine 241 and Ladder 109 assisted his family during the birth of their third child on the Gowanus Expressway. This experience has strengthened Rimassa's bond with Bay Ridge and is a key reason he loves working in the neighborhood. The FDNY is hosting a Brooklyn Summer Block Party on Saturday, July 13, to celebrate the borough.
