Rogers fire, 5/15/15 (LOC)

  • Fabulous Instrument said:
    It's difficult to avoid thinking of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire of 1911 when viewing this photograph. Hopefully, the "Rogers fire" of 1915 was nowhere near as deadly.

  • Art Siegel said:
    This was a series of explosions and fire at a five story building at 206 E. 19th Street, near 3rd Avenue. J.E. Rodgers Company had the first two floors, and the remaining floors stored highly explosive materials. Two people were badly injured.

    I remember those old mailboxes! As a child, I had to stand on tippy-toes to reach the slot!

    Yes, ıt worked for a while.

    Apparently from a Bain News Service photo from 1920, see uncropped version at Alcock (LOC)
