Breezy Point Devastated from Hurricane Sandy


Maspeth, NY 718-416-1656 


During Hurricane Sandy, at least 80 homes were destroyed in the New York City borough of Queens in a six-alarm fire that raged overnight and into the daylight as floodwater continued to surge.

By 11 a.m. yesterday morning, the New York City Fire Department contained the huge blaze in Breezy Point Queens, 12 full hours after it began. The fire took place in a “Zone A” area which New York City Office of Emergency Management reported was the highest risk of flooding from Hurricane Sandy.

Firefighters reported the wind is what made it so hard to put the flames out. There were about 200 firefighters on the scene.
