Downtown Disasters - A Chicago Stories Documentary
Ойын-сауық
Chicago Stories recalls two very different disasters that occurred in the heart of Chicago’s Loop 90 years apart: First, the deadliest building fire in U.S. history: the 1903 Iroquois Theatre Fire. Then, the Great Loop Flood of 1992: a $2 billion disaster. As downtown buildings mysteriously flooded with water from the Chicago River, the city searched for answers in a long-forgotten tunnel system.

Seeing an old man cry is moving. So sorry for all those affected. And those perished.
My wedding reception was at The Beverly Hills Country Club in June, 1976. The following year it burned to the ground. John Davidson was a hero that night. Another case of blocked exits and unnecessary deaths. Tragic.

Even with the improvements in fire safety, horrific examples still happen. Remember the MGM in Las Vegas, the Station Nightclub in Rhode Island, and more. I admit to being one of those people who looks around when I go into a building, wondering what sort of things could go wrong.

Remember those incidents quite well. Cases of massive numbers of people dying in fires has continued up to our time. There was one in Brazil at a venue which killed a very large number of people.
I've read "Chicagos Awful Theatre Horror" By The Survivors And Rescuers With Introduction By Bishop Fallows. I can say after reading this Book, I had to at times take long breaks (weeks, sometimes more) and come back to it due to the incomprehensible horror, grim, and devastating nature of it all. With that being said I can greatly empathize for the Author recounting an account he read. There are some parts of this Tragedy that will make you have Nightmares and wish you could just forget it. However just like Life in itself, its important to take away the lessons and insight learned from Tragedies like this so we can hope to better educate and prevent anyone from ever having to go through this again.
My sister-in-law worked downtown.Her building was one of those that got flooded. She got stuck downtown for a while, then wound up being off work for a few days.

I used to work as a forensic architecture technician. We did a lot of fire safety inspection jobs. Nowadays, it is the unseen fire safety features that are sometimes neglected. The most typical violations we found were lack of firewalls in the attic spaces of building, such as motels i.e. Wherever you see a wall in a top floor, motel room, that wall should extend all the way up through to the roof and have a certain level of fire rating. Also, electrical outlets on either side of adjacent hotel and condo units are not supposed to be aligned with each other and should have a minimum separation to slow the transmission of fire between units, but this is overlooked sometimes. Other issues included not having enough fire retardant filling the annular spaces where pipes pass from/through one floor to another.

Precautions weren't up to date as it would be now.
It seems to be a commonplace for the exits to be locked or blocked so someone can't sneak into the venue right up into the 1980s, making something bad so much worse. It also seemed to be a commonplace that the [bleep] owners walked with light penalties or fines, and in this case, no justice at all. This is the first time I've heard of the Chicago flood. Kudos to the "Flood Stud."
I love this series. I was born in Chicago and raised in the suburb, North Chicago. I never heard of most of these stories! I now live in Vegas but I'm getting educated about Chicago! Love it!!!!

20 minutes for the theatre fire? This brought a tear to my eye just utterly horrific.
The Eastland disaster of 1915 claimed 844 lives, (or a similar number). The Eastland capsizing in the Chicago River was by far the worst disaster in Chicago history. No one is saying the lives lost in these other fires weren't important. It is just the Eastland needs to be remembered. So many Westinghouse Electric employees and their families died in this horrendous calamity. I think a future city official named Cermak rose to prominence by helping families with funerals. Cermak later became a popular well liked mayor of Chicago. He was assassinated from bullets meant for FDR in 1933 in Florida.

My grandfather was walking across the Clark St. bridge when the Eastland capsized. Him and his partner owned a canopied tour boat on the Chicago River that they kept docked there. He helped pull a few people out, but most had already drown. His and other boats dragged grappling hooks to snag and bring up the bodies from the bottom. Interesting fact: More passengers died on the Eastland than on the Titanic.

Really enjoying this series. I am not from Chicago. But my birthday is also on December 30th. And ever since I learned about the Iroquois Theater fire, I take a moment, every year, to think about the victims and their families. To remember that, even though it's a happy day for me, it's the anniversary of a day that was unthinkably tragic, for hundreds. And I say a little prayer for them all.
I remember the flood well, but I still had family in Chicago, and my sister worked downtown. I don't think I remember about much of a panic, but Chicago is just one of those places where people take things in stride. Great stories and historical information.

This underground / basement flooding could happen in just about any city around the world. The infrastructure is old, and for the most part, ignored. And The very idea that someone would dismiss a quote for repair or maintenance, without the capacity to consider what the potential fallout might be if the situation is not repaired (eg $2M) just boggles the mind. Poor awareness and planning... but then, really, who could have anticipated it... We humans never like to learn lessons when money is involved (greed wins every time).
I've seen a few other versions of this story on Bad Day HQ, Raven Eye, etc., but this is by far the best, most complete version of this tragic event that I've seen. Excellent job, wttw.
Being from New England, this appear like the Coconut Grove fire. The owners had chained and locked the side doors. Decorations were flammable. Both fires were just awful.

It is one of the best documentaries I have seen. The firefighter talking is absolutely correct true is we try to hide the sorrow! I can say sadly I had two children the first I sat in my car for an hour before going inside my house. Hiding how I was feeling from everyone. I still feel the sorrow. I can't imagine what these brothers felt or the ones at the Our Lady of the Angels fire. Or how they managed after.
The absolute fear knowing you’re likely to perish by burning to death or being trampled.

All three disasters were equally huge in Chicago press at the time, nationally, the press coverage died out quickly on all of them. I think a better comparison would be the Eastland (1915 with 844 killed) vs the Titanic (1912 and 1503 killed). Despite being the same time period and a large loss of life on both, the Titanic received 1000x more coverage (and still garners attention in our culture today). The Titanic sinking was much more dramatic and had multiple story lines, it's international, a unsinkable ship is sent to the bottom by an iceberg, the nearby ship doesn't recognize the trouble, the rescue by other ships, a luxury liner, and famous captains of industry going down with the ship. With the Eastland you have an old day tour ship that capsizes in a river, no ships to the rescue. (By the way, my grandfather was witness to it that day). It's not hard to understand, it comes down to human nature, the more dramatic the story is, the more we pay attention to it, the more life it has in the media. That's the way it has always been.
"Absolutely Fireproof" at the Iroquois sounds a little like the HMS Titanic's boast of "Unsinkable."
I've read the "Tinder Box" book. Very well put together.
This was a terrible event that could have been prevented if only the owners had followed the city regulations that were on the books. The inspectors were bribed, did not do their jobs, and failed the victims. The owners were never punished. They had no morals. A travesty of justice. God bless the people lost, especially the children. I learned about this tragedy when taking Fire Fighting I. After more classes in my career I became an Instructor II, and always presented this event and the lessons learned. Lt. Rick K. Jr. MFD
Seems to me that many venues are going back to this. Many are cutting corners to speed up the building process and to cut costs. Money talks and no one walks. It’s a sad situation.
