The fire was fought defensively using five tower ladders, numerous 2 1/2-inch handlines, and Blitz fire nozzles. Command ordered companies located in the front of the building to reposition and were clear when the #1/#4 corner collapsed into the street.
Strong winds and water supply problems hampered firefighting efforts.
