New High Pressure Water System Beats Major City Fires
In New York on January 8, Chief Croker hailed the high pressure water main system after twelve alarms fought three simultaneous fires across a one mile square. Six hundred men from 40 engines battled four hours in frigid air, with no loss of life or serious injuries despite about 1.325 million dollars in damages. The blazes at Hudson and Leonard streets, Bowery and Hester streets, and Broadway and Houston street were contained to the original buildings.
