Complex high-rise firefighting operations in New York City with FDNY Captain Chris Collier, and Lieutenants Dan Gordon and James Pirot

New York City is home to thousands of high-rise buildings, from legacy skyscrapers to modern glass towers. Their heights can range from seven stories to more than 100 stories, with vastly different interiors. The FDNY responds to fires and emergencies in all of them. Over the years, the FDNY has developed proven strategies and tactics but continues to adapt as they city’s skyline and building technologies evolve. Three experts in the field—Captain Chris Collier, and Lieutenants Dan Gordon and James Pirot—join host Battalion Chief Anthony Pascocello for a discussion on common challenges and best practices in these complex buildings.
