More than 100 firefighters battled a brush fire in Prospect Park on Friday night that charred two acres of greenery, occurring during one of the longest dry spells in New York City's history.

The fire was in an “extremely dense” part of Prospect Park on a hill, and there were no structures nearby to be threatened, an FDNY official said.

A brush fire ignited in Prospect Park Friday evening, amid an ongoing drought across the city. Fanned by strong winds, the fire rose to two alarms as the blaze spread across a 2-acre swath of the wooded area of the Nethermead near the center of the park around 6:40 p.
