Chicago 3-11 Alarm Fire 6-24-13

This from Drew Gresik:

Hey guys,

Took in this job at 2450 S Central Park Ave. We saw the header from Roosevelt and Kedzie and arrived just after the Still companies. Fire was in an “E” shaped, 3-story apartment building. It appeared that the fire was in the cockloft above the 3rd floor, and it was knocked pretty good by the time the 2-11 companies staged. The fire was then rekindled and Commissioner Santiago requested the 3-11. Here are a couple shots I got, including one of the rescues, Squad 1A working in Sector 1, and Truck 32’s guys climbing the main to the roof.
