3-11 Alarm fire in Chicago, 5-14-00

This message is from Eric Haak:

I wanted to share some old photos from a 3-11 alarm that took place on May 14, 2000. The fire occurred at 71st and Wabash. These images were scanned from original negatives I own. They were taken by a photographer from the Sun-Times, but I don’t have the name of the photographer. The condition of the negatives was very poor, so I spent a lot of time editing out the scratches. However, you can see that I haven’t completely removed all of them yet. There are likely some recognizable faces in the photos, including a younger version of Father Mulcrone.
