spectacular smoke at huge Detoirt building fire

All posts tagged spectacular smoke at huge Detoirt building fire

Steve Redick submitted this huge fire from Detroit in October of 2009 which produced spectacular smoke conditions.

October 2006. 3rd alarm equivalent at Vinewood and Toledo, Detroit. Unoccupied commercial with storage of resins and chemicals. Heavy toxic smoke conditions caused a Level 3 haz mat to be assigned as well. This fire was occurring at the same time Chicago had the 5-11 alarm in the south loop, at the old George Diamond’s Steakhouse building. This was one of the more spectacular fires I have seen in Detroit, and I was awarded a cover photo on Firehouse magazine from this fire.
