This from Eric Haak:
I was fairly close to this incident so I decided to take it in. This is at least the second fire this month at this abandoned industrial building which is a block from Engine 125’s quarters. This building has a row of old transom windows that open up along the length of the roof for ventilation which is where the fire was located this time. When I arrived there were small flames burning across the length of the peak of this transom section. The fire was knocked fairly quickly but companies stayed on scene for over an hour working to overhaul this entire section of the roof. I am not sure but I believe the spare engine is Engine 68. I believe Engine 125 was further in the complex and could not be seen from the street.

I do but not many. Mostly of the guys on the roof. Police would not let me on the property for a closer perspective and being that I have zero credentials, it kind of limits my access. So basically the only angle I had was from the top of a balcony that gave me a view of the roof so I have a bunch of shots of that.
