One hundred-one year's ago, March 25, 1911, at approximately 4:40 PM the FDNY began receiving calls that the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory was on fire.
Before the job was out, a total of 146 Triangle workers had died.
May they all rest in peace.

Pretty crazy owners/management locked the doors so the workers could not steal anything, trapping everyone inside!

The Happy Land Social Club fire happened also on this day in 1990.

I think the total loss of life that day was 87.
Just two examples of how today could be the day.
