Readable Steams emit close event when the underlying resource done writing.

r.on('close', function(){
  console.log('request finished downloading file');
});

But if you want to catch the moment when fs finished writing data to the disc, you need Writeable Stream finish event:

var w = fs.createWriteStream('/tmp/imageresize/'+x);

request(options1).pipe(w);

w.on('finish', function(){
  console.log('file downloaded to ', '/tmp/imageresize/'+x);
});
