Yorkville remembers

Walk With
the Yorkville 9.

Nine neighborhood memorial-stone locations established after September 11 connect the firefighters to the streets around the firehouse they served.

This page presents the historically documented locations. Current physical verification of every stone in 2026 is still being completed, so the final public memorial will distinguish confirmed-present stones from historically recorded locations.

Begin at the firehouse

A neighborhood remembrance.

The memorial locations cluster within the streets around the East 85th Street firehouse, turning the neighborhood itself into part of the historical record.

The numbered sequence is a memorial viewing order, not a claim about the original placement chronology. For an actual walk, visitors should use the street-map links to account for crossings, access and current conditions.

The firehouse remains an active FDNY house. It is not simply a historical site. Visitors should remember that firefighters continue to work and respond from here every day.

Verification note

Historical locations, current verification.

The nine addresses on this page are drawn from published neighborhood reporting documenting the memorial stones established after September 11. Before final launch, the project should add current 2026 photographs or family/community confirmation for each location whenever possible.

Until then, this site describes them as historically documented memorial-stone locations rather than asserting that every stone remains physically present today.
