This is from Larry Shapiro: A call reporting a house fire at 102 S. Chester was received by the Park Ridge Fire Department just before 10 a.m. on Saturday, February 15, 2014. As units were en route, they spotted a header, and upon arrival at the corner of Chester and Garden, they found the back porch engulfed in flames and a worker with burn injuries. The incident was upgraded to a Code 4 due to the active fire. Engine 35 encountered a frozen hydrant at the scene, so firefighters had to hand-jack a hose from Tower 36 to another hydrant half a block south. Fire companies quickly brought the main fire under control and discovered limited access to the second floor. The home was unoccupied at the time, apparently in the final stages of renovation. Units on the scene included Park Ridge Engine 35, Tower 36, both Park Ridge ambulances, and Battalion 35. Additional mutual aid came from Rosemont and Niles with trucks, Morton Grove with a squad, Norwood Park and North Maine with engines, and ambulances from Lincolnwood and Elk Grove Village. I arrived after the fire had been extinguished and have photos of the scene. The response was swift, and the crews worked efficiently despite the challenges posed by the frozen hydrant. It’s clear that the fire was contained quickly, preventing further damage. Mutual aid companies on Chester. Larry Shapiro photo Rear of the house as seen from Chester.
