I thought the address was different... but it was a fire in the boiler room, didn't get beyond "Working Fire" as far as units to the scene...

Meanwhile I must once again give a shoutout to Frank's www.stamfordfirepix.com for some great shots from the Fireside Restaurant fire. (Scroll down to "11-21-08 947 Hope St")

The correct address was 1008 Hope Street and it was a fire in the boiler room of a dry cleaners. Engine 7 was returning from getting fuel when dispatched so the were right in front of the building.

Quick knockdown by engine 7 averted another possible building fire
