Bayside Historical Society

For the last century and a half, FDNY fireboats have played a vital role in protecting New York City’s waterfront. On Thursday, October 8, the Bayside Historical Society welcomes author and photographer David Rocco for an illustrated presentation exploring the history and evolution of these remarkable vessels.
With more than 500 miles of shoreline, New York City has long relied on specialized fireboats to respond to fires along the waterfront and aboard ships. Using historic photographs and images, Rocco will trace their development from the early wooden-hull tugboats to the highly specialized vessels that serve the city today.
Rocco has been involved in numerous historic preservation and cultural projects throughout the Hudson Valley and New York City. In 2023, he prepared the successful nomination that placed the retired FDNY fireboat John D. McKean on both the State and National Registers of Historic Places. He currently serves as Vice President of the Fireboat McKean Preservation Project.
The presentation will be followed by a question-and-answer session and book signing.
Admission is $10 for BHS members and $15 for non-members. Purchase tickets on the BHS website: <a href="https://www.baysidehistorical.org/events-1/author-talk-with-david-rocco-fireboats-of-the-fdny." rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">baysidehistorical.org/events-1/author-talk-with-david-rocco-fireboats-of-the-fdny.</a>

The Bayside Historical Society is excited to participate in this year's Open House New York Weekend, an event spanning all five boroughs that celebrates architecture and design.
On Sunday, October 18th, from 12:00pm to 4:00pm, we will be participating with free guided tours of The Castle in Fort Totten Park, which has been the home of the Bayside Historical Society since 1984. Built in 1887, the building was originally used by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as their Officers’ Mess Hall and Club. The Castle is one of the finest surviving examples in New York City of Gothic Revival castellated architecture, and is a NYC designated landmark that is also listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Our staff will be on hand to give tours and talk about our beautiful building and its history, along with the history of the land dating back to 1639. Guests can also explore the Bayside Historical Society's newest exhibition, "Home Front and Front Lines: 250 Years of American Service," which explores the stories of northeast Queens residents whose service, sacrifice, and civic engagement helped shape the American experience.
