Chicago Still Alarm fire, 2/7/15
From what Eric Haak shared:

I captured this still image around 9:15 AM on Saturday (February 7, 2015) at 3259 South Halsted Street. Unfortunately, I arrived just five minutes too late, and by the time I got there, firefighters had already made significant progress containing the blaze. The fire seemed to be largely confined to the rear porches of a sizable three-story mixed-use building. Enginemen from Units 29 and 28, along with Ladder Companies 8 and 11, were on the scene. It was quite challenging to get a clear shot of Engine 29 due to the angle and sunlight.
Attached are some photos I managed to take:
- The first image shows firefighters working on the roof during the overhaul phase.
- Another photo captures firefighters using a 35-foot ladder to access higher areas of the structure.
- You can also see Chicago Fire Department Engine 28 clearly in action.
- There’s another shot featuring Ladder Truck 8, which played an essential role in the operation.
Despite my late arrival, I’m glad I could document parts of the incident. These images provide a glimpse into the hard work and dedication of the firefighters who responded to the emergency.
