Description | Large black and white photograph of a ladder drill being performed outside of the Detroit Fire Department Training Academy at West Warren Avenue and Lawton Street. A firefighter has climbed to the top of a ladder apparatus' ladder beside the building's roof. Five other firefighters stand around the table of the ladder apparatus, while two more men wait below. Signs on the building's wall indicate both the height, as well as the length of a ladder needed to scale to that point. A Detroit Fire Department car is parked to the right of the front of the truck, and several other cars are parked beside another building on the right. A puddle of water is on the foreground on the right. The photo is mounted on linen. |
