Rich Creek's Model M is nowhere to be seen on street view anymore, as the fire department got a new roof installed. Must have happened sometime after 2019.

Bridgewater's siren is still extant. Here's Dec 2022 street view of the siren.

I'm pretty sure google maps shifted the location of the pin a bit to make it appear that it was gone (as I was able to notice). It has happened on a few of my maps whenever the imagery updates.
Holler!

I just wanna tell you that this map has helped me so much over the last year or two. Hats off, Bijay.
Also, I'll be recording Boyce's Darley for the Saturday test next weekend. I'll post the video here when it's up.

Sirens may not be sexy, but they sure work.

That mystery siren is just an older Federal, likely a Type 5 from the Enterprises era.
