Via Chief Webb:
This aerial Platform purchased back in July 2013 will soon be reassigned to our upcoming Station 5 and will become Tower 53; the new Tower 53 should arrive in 2028-2029. Another 100’ Aerial ladder truck will be here also along with five new engines, given each station a new high-end designed engine.
