This from Drew Gresik:

Took in a 20×20 alley garage at 2420 S 60th Ct on Sunday. Cicero Engines 1 & 2 each dropped a line and made a good stop, confining the fire to just the one garage. Slight exposure to the D Side garage. One pick-up truck was destroyed in the fire.

This from Steve Redick:

6212 Cermak at “oh my god it’s early” this am (04:59) … I suspect this fire was in for a bit before I heard about it. I arrived just as the roof went in It was snowing just enough so I really couldn’t use flash, so they are all available light shots. Oak Park tower, two Berwyn ladder pipes. Looked like the members were in both exposures and I suspect communication was minimal although I really don’t know for sure.

Chicago 2-11 Alarm fire 8-13-13

This from Eric Haak:

Here are a few shots of Tuesday’s 2-11 on the 7600 block of South Eggleston in Chicago. Still time – 1110 hrs, Box time – 1119 hrs, 2-11 time – 1139 hrs, my arrival time – 1149 hrs. I unfortunately hesitated on this one and arrived just in time for overhaul. The original fire building is the one with the red awnings. Engine 54 had fire in the back porches on arrival. Battalion 18 boxed the fire after it communicated to the home to the north. There was also a little fire in the home to the south. Truck 20 is still running in the spare they had last week. Squad 1 responded on the box as Squad 5 was out of service. Companies had some pretty heavy overgrowth in the backyards of each building to deal with along with downed wires. Just a few rig shots to give an overall perspective.
