Title

Fire Department, Michigan and Trumbull, 1967

Description

Members of the Detroit Fire Department brace themselves as they fight fires at two buildings on Michigan Avenue at Trumbull. Though much of the arson that took place during the Unrest was targeted at businesses, the tight layout of many neighborhoods caused fires to jump from the business districts to the homes directly behind them.
