The Greenpoint Terminal Market Fire May 2006

The Greenpoint Terminal Market is down the street from me. When the fire started, we smelled the smoke and heard the fire engines. It was one of the biggest fires in the city ever. When I walked down there to take photos, everything was covered in smoke.

Here is one of the fire engines with all the knobs and dials...

They were fighting the fire from the building across the street
One lone fireman looks like he's had enough
The Hasidm looked on
A group leaves the fire
