Fire safety critique of Chicago buildings and city control
The piece argues vigilance is lacking to prevent urban fire horror similar to New York. It cites Chicago under building department control and reports from the League for Public Safety. Hundreds of women and girls work late with locked outside doors and dark halls, risking panic and trampling in fires. Last year inspectors found 490 Chicago buildings lacked adequate fire escapes or had blocked exits. The federal building housing nearly 4,000 workers reportedly has no fire escapes, due to jurisdiction issues. Without active reform, the political system is blamed for inaction, while many structures go without proper fire cameras and safety measures.
