Fire Station 23 reopens
The station's closing was criticized by Michael Wagoner, president of the nearby Berkeley Park Neighborhood Association. "I can hire a private security company to patrol my neighborhood," he said in December. "But I cannot hire a company to put out a fire." On Thursday morning, Wagoner was one of several neighbors at the station to welcome the first shift of returning firefighters. JOHN SPINK / jspink@ajc.com
