More from Steve Redick on the 3-11 Alarm fire at S. Union on Saturday:

We had a 3-11 today at 45th & Union..4 frame dwellings. Eng 50 boxed it on arrival. Fire appeared to be heaviest in the rear. Numerous handlines, snorkel and tower ladder were used. Fire was in full possesion of 3 buildings when I arrived and companies were still setting up. This is a congested area and many units stretched lines down gangways from the next block over (see 29 photo).

The members did a lot of work here..this was a tough job.
