Chicago 5-11 Alarm 9-30-12

Late Saturday night into Sunday morning, Chicago firefighters responded to a significant 5-11 alarm fire at a multi-story warehouse on the north side. The incident, which involved hazardous materials, kept crews occupied well into the afternoon. Tim Olk, Steve Redick, and Larry Shapiro were present to document the event, and while their full collection of images and video footage isn’t yet available, they’ll be sharing their findings later this evening and tomorrow. According to the Chicago Tribune, the fire broke out in the early hours of Sunday in the 2600 block of West Nelson Street within the Avondale neighborhood. Over 200 firefighters and paramedics were called to the scene to combat the intense blaze. By around 9:30 a.m., the fire had been declared under control after raging for several hours. However, crews remained on site throughout the day to ensure safety and manage any lingering issues. The cause of the fire remains unclear, but it quickly spread across the top three floors of the multi-use structure, resulting in partial structural collapse of the north wall and some internal floors. This posed additional challenges for firefighters, who also had to contend with potential hazardous materials. Below are two images captured by Steve Redick upon his arrival at the scene, providing a glimpse of the scale and intensity of the situation.
