- Firefighter Roger Heyser manuevers Quint 1's aerial into position to
extinguish the fire which had quickly spread to the attic of the Pub &
Restaurant on Lincoln Square. The building on the left suffered minimal
damage as fire departments directed their efforts to protect the adjacent
exposure buildings. Thick smoke laid in the streets more than two blocks
at the time of dispatch. (Photo provided courtesy of Ed Reiner of

Tower 6 from Emmitsburg, MD was called in to
assist with the fire almost immediately after arrival of first-in units.
In this photo, the Tower is used to extinguish fire through the second floor
window openings on the side of the building to get underneath the tin roof of
the structure after it collapsed. (Photo provided courtesy of Darryl
