Snapshot: Chinatown Dragon Fighters

Chinatown Dragon Fighters

On Canal Street in Chinatown, even the fire station is China-themed. The “Chinatown Dragon Fighters” are otherwise known as Engine Company 9, Ladder Company 6 of the New York City Fire Department, and they’ve painted their garage door to proclaim this to the passing crowds.

Excuse the brevity of this post — I’ve just gotten back to Beijing and am busy apartment-hunting. Check out previous snapshots of other stops on my travels in China and beyond.
