context_page_description: New York City Fire Department Rescue Company 1, also known as Rescue 1, is one of five specialized rescue companies of the New York City Fire Department that responds to rescue operations that require specialized equipment and training. It was organized on March 8, 1915.
context_section_description: Rescue 1's firehouse was destroyed in 1985 by a fire in a neighboring warehouse. Rescue 1 was already out on a call when fire collapsed the warehouse onto their quarters. The unit then temporarily relocated until 1989 when their present firehouse was finished. Their distinctive door was saved and relocated to the back of the building.
  During the September 11 attacks, the company responded to the North Tower, and lost nearly half its company. In the 2002 documentary 9/11, they are one of first units entering the stairwell of the building. In 2002, rescue trucks designed by the company's captain Terry Hatton, who died in attacks, were incorporated into the department's fleet, with his characteristic exclamation "Outstanding" printed on the front of Rescue 1's vehicle. The subsequent 2007 Pierce rig had the same inscription with "T.H." added next to the motto. In 2005, the section of West 43rd Street between Tenth and Eleventh Avenues where the company's firehouse is located was named Terence S. Hatton Way.
  Rescue 1 celebrated their centennial on March 8, 2015.
