UNION CARPENTERS REBUILD 7 FIREHOUSES IN HURRICANE KATRINA RELIEF EFFORT
 New York City Union Carpenters and Contractors, in partnership with the Leary Firefighters Foundation (link), lead the way in a massive rebuilding effort aimed at restoring the city’s firehouses destroyed in Hurricane Katrina. Over the course of five months, Union Carpenters volunteered their time, skill and expertise to construct seven new firehouses. Despite the unique challenges each firehouse presented, the Carpenters built quality buildings in record time. Within the first week of assistance, three firehouses were completely rebuilt. Work on the firehouses included sheet rocking, beam work, painting, plastering, framing and ceiling installation.
Gerry Crimmins and Sean Keogan, instructors at the Labor Technical College, spearheaded the rebuilding efforts. Together, they reached out to materials suppliers who donated building materials used to construct the new firehouses. Angela Coyle, Program Services Manager for the Leary Firefighters Foundation, noted that the Union Carpenters and Contractors “worked together to create history,” leaving a positive impact on the City of New Orleans. The newly built firehouses stand as a reminder of the difference that quality union labor and management can make in building better communities. Union Carpenters and Contractors are Building Lives.
