At this point a cause has not been determined, so i'm not going to speculate. I was working the night of the fire and was listening to the scanner in the firehouse when I heard 37 Engine give an URGENT message, then a 10-75 signal for "The quarters of Engine 80". They had heavy fire on arrival. Fire went to a 2nd Alarm and yes, the entire 2nd and 3rd floors were gutted. Another FDNY member sent me a cell phone pic of 80/23's bunkroom, and it is completely gutted. I was gonna post it, but I don't think that it would be appropriate.
Engine 80 is currently in with Engine 69 Ladder 28, Batt. 16, and Ladder 23 is currently in with Engine 37 Ladder 40.
