Actually Floral Park Centre, next to Floral Park. Floral Park Centre is the smallest fire district on the island, about 1 square mile. This rig is a 1948 WLF, originally owned by the Manhasset-Lakeville FD. They sold it to Floral Park Centre in 1968, where it served as Engine 132 until the early 1980's when it was replaced by a 1959 WLF, ex-Mineola. It was then privately owned by a couple of Manhasset-Lakeville members, and evantually re-acquired by Manhasset-Lakeville FD, which still owns it today.
