It looks like a vent to me... and there are expelling points in every direction, not just one.

Only way to know for sure would be to ask people inside the building.
I love Yamaha Music Sirens.

Re: Post your Mystery Sirens here.
Is this a siren or a vent?

Re: Post your Mystery Sirens here.
I remember seeing a vent just like that. I will look for images of that.
Still pop on here occasionally, but no longer post.

I think this is a Model 5T, but the thing the top piece is mounted on is not federal signal like... I originally thought this was a darley 3V8, but they aren't dual tone.

Re: Post your Mystery Sirens here.
I’m thinking it’s a 3V8? It looks like one. However, (chances are low) it could be an Erick.IceBolt_1003 wrote: ↑Wed Sep 09, 2020 7:53 pmhttps://www.google.com/maps/@40.5945072 ... 312!8i6656

Re: Post your Mystery Sirens here.
I originally thought that too, but as I said, it's dual tone. I think Erick made single tone sirens, so it might be a decot proto (probably not). it looked like it had a weird port ratio, like 6/10 or something. Also, the legs on the siren are not Federal, so I'm genuinely confused here.Kasey wrote: ↑Sat Sep 12, 2020 10:30 pmI’m thinking it’s a 3V8? It looks like one.

Re: Post your Mystery Sirens here.
It definitely looks single-tone to me, as far as I can tell. I see one row of ports and an intake opening above that. I'm 95% sure that's a typical old Sterling/Darley 3V8.IceBolt_1003 wrote: ↑Mon Sep 14, 2020 6:06 pmI originally thought that too, but as I said, it's dual tone.
Architecture preservationist. I enjoy obscure history and mapping things, and grew up around sirens. Not planning to own one.
