I went digging through my files after Steve Redick posted an image from this fire. The fire was well under control when I arrived, companies had begun to pick up lines.
I apologize for composition and overall quality of these images I was just getting into photography.

There was another fire very close proximity that day. It was a chemical Factory 1300 on Western ave. It took an agonizing 20 minutes for the fire trucks to arrive on scene. By that time it was beyond containment. I was so saddened to hear of the death of the Lieutenant. Ironically there is a fire house a half a block from where my father’s Factory was. His heart was broken so much so he passed away from this broken heart two weeks later. So in essence we lost two heroic men that day.
