Reminds me of the Plant Shoe fire in Boston over

thirty years ago. Seven story or more mill building

100+ x 1200+.  Used most of Boston apparatus and

several mutual aid companies from surrounding

cities and towns.  Go to firenews.org for photos.

I was by there tonight to see the "ice castle" that EVERYONE has been by to photograph...and it's STILL burning!!  Emergency demolition is somewhat underway - they couldn't get the crane started to pull down some of the north-facing wall.

 

Pics tomorrow when I'm on the other computer. (hard drive maxed out - doesn't download from the camera because it doesn't have enough free space to process the data, even though the images go to an external HDD)
