Four days ago, a fire broke out at Danken Auto Parts. I took a lot of pictures. This is one.
During the main part of the crisis, the Police and Fire Departments closed Fourth Avenue in both directions, with perhaps fifty emergency vehicles in attendance. I asked a firefighter if this was typical. He said that because of the danger of collapse in the building, and because there were accelerants present, they weren't taking any chances.
(While "the FDNY said the fire was placed under control at 3:17pm," there was at least one fire truck, ladder extended, parked in front of the building until daybreak the following day.)
