You can’t put safety first
when you put firefighters last!

Water St
Fire House

The city’s Central Station, housing more than half of Haverhill’s fire suppression staff, along with the only staffed ladder and rescue covering the entire city.

Caution tape and “car wash” signs for railings
Truck Bay, Water Damage around station’s 100-year-old main support beam, moisture meter read 50% last checked.
Living Quarters, Wall Crumbling (city-appointed workers would not touch due to fears of wall collapse) rust from wall lockers getting wet against the wall.
"Union BS" - Mayor Jim Fiorentini (10/04/19)
Just above the ceiling tiles, if it's hidden, no one will know, except it's not
Living Quarters, the air we breathe, changing the ceiling tiles won’t fix these issues.
"No black mold in the stations" - Mayor Jim Fiorentini (11/04/19)
