Walking down Broadway this afternoon, I discovered that the antique fire alarm that stood on the corner of Isham Street and Broadway since around 1910 had been knocked down. My guess is that a city plow got the best of it.
This must weigh a ton. I imagine it is cast iron. It was featured in an article by the folks at Forgotten New York last year. http://forgotten-ny.com/2013/02/broadway-and-isham-streets-inwood/
Will this relic be saved? Perhaps reinstalled? Let me know if you have any information about this landmark.
