This from Steve Redick:

While looking through my dad’s scrapbook stuff I found this issue of Fire Engineering magazine with an excellent write up on the tragic Hubbard St fire. This incident has been well discussed over the years but I know this will be new to many of you.  This is a great example of what a good fire magazine article should be.
