Sudden burst of nostalgia... that'd be the old Franklin Telephone Exchange building.  Used to work on the third floor, back when 'lectrickery was a new-fangled thing & computers would never "catch on" with the great unwashed.

A work crew has been modifying the building for a while. Suspect the building  is being converted to apartments or something else.

I think BOMS is broken again, OR SAMFS are bored.

The mind filtered boggles at stupid responses like that.

I thought it only went second alarm.

201 was responded initially to a report of smoke in the area, on their way there Comms upgraded it to a first alarm A class response as they were receiving multiple calls, at about the same time 201 arrived and upgraded it to a second alarm A class which bought the rest of the cavalry. From what I can tell it is pretty much a standard response to a confirmed fire in a high rise building.

Interestingly a CFS response to a confirmed fire in an A class structure is an automatic third alarm assignment, that would be eight nuff nuff 24's with a combined pump capacity of about two MFS pumpers - yippee.

Did you really need to post this before it was a confirmed fire?  Makes you seem like you have no life on the scanner all day :P
