A fire that broke out Tuesday night on 94th Street and Amsterdam Avenue injured three people, and took firefighters more than two hours to put out. The fire started on a third floor balcony at 711 Amsterdam Avenue and was called in at 6:33 p.m. About 60 firefighters showed up, and the blaze was under control by 8:49 p.m., the FDNY told us. One firefighter and two other men were taken to St. Luke’s-Roosevelt Hospital with minor injuries. It’s unclear what caused the fire.

Thanks to Malcolm Carter for the photo.

Our primary goal is to create a safe and respectful space where a broad spectrum of voices can be heard. We welcome diverse viewpoints and encourage readers to engage critically with one another’s ideas, but never at the expense of civility. Disagreement is expected—even encouraged—but it must be expressed with care and consideration. Comments that take cheap shots, escalate conflict, or veer into ideological warfare detract from the constructive spirit we aim to cultivate.
