Sepia-toned photo of a fire at the Detroit News

Description:

Sepia-toned photo of a fire at the Detroit News. The view is probably looking eastward on W. Fort Street with the Old Post Office building visible on the far left side of the photo adjacent to the "Postal Telegraph Office" signs. Snow can be seen on the street and a horse-drawn sled is visible near the center of the photo. A smoky haze hangs overhead along the street in the background. Many spectators are standing in the street and fire hoses can be seen in the snow.
