No. 49 is the address. It is actually the former home of Engine Co. 32. Engine Co. 6 was originally on Liberty St just west of the current home of 10/10 and on the north side and was displaced when the WTC was built.
Engine 6 was the only relocated company that was allowed to remain in service and the original company 32 in quarters was disbanded. I think the COD or commisioner at the time had a beef with 32s commanding officer...or so the story goes.
