There are few traditions better than the firefighter calendar... and the 2011 City of the Brave calendar has arrived! According to the Daily News, this is different than the official FDNY calendar, but who doesn't need more than one calendar? Photographer Katherine Kostreva created the City of the Brave one after firefighters saved her life, and the 26-year-old has since "made it her artistic mission to honor the firemen's selfless bravado and their muscular bodies." Meet those muscular bodies at the launch party at Red Sky Bar (47 East 29th Street) tomorrow at 8 p.m. And in the interest of being fair, here's a peek at the official FDNY calendar boys. You're welcome:
