The FDNY's Engine 88 is throwing a block party on Belmont Avenue this weekend to celebrate 150 years.
The celebration also allowed Bronx children to get an up close look at the inside of a firehouse.
They also learned how to use a fire hose and free someone trapped inside a car.
Firefighters were on hand to teach children CPR, and paramedics explained how they perform work in the back of an ambulance.
