The Chicago Fire Department responded to this fire in the 1900 Block of West Devon at 0330 on Sunday morning (2/15/15).  It was eventually elevated to a still and box alarm and companies went defensive.  What you can’t see in the images is that the building was a t-shape and had a fairly large extension off the back of the building.  Police did rescue one resident who was transported to a local hospital.  Temperatures were around zero degrees causing everything in the vicinity to ice over.  I took the opportunity to take some images of a few engine companies I don’t often get to shoot.
