Palisades Pk NJ 3rd Alm 318 Bergen Blvd. 07-23-14

At just after 06:00, Palisades Park Fire Dept was dispatched for activated fire alarms at 318 Bergen Blvd. On arrival of the 1st in chief heavy smoke was showing from the 2nd floor and roof with a working fire on the 2nd floor. A 2nd alarm was requested as fire was already breaking through the roof. Fire eventually took over most of the 2nd floor as well as the cockloft, companies set up an exterior attack using 2 ladder pipes, 1 ladder tower and multiple exterior handlines. A 3rd alarm was requested for manpower and additional companies due to water supply issues in part due to a water main break in front of the fire building. The fire was declared under control at around 08:30 with companies remaining on the scene through most of the day hitting hot spots as the building was partially demolished to allow firefighters access including one that rekindled. More than 100 firefighters from Leonia, Ridgefield, Cliffside Park, Fort Lee, Englewood Cliffs, Englewood and Edgewater assisted at the scene, 2 firefighters were transported to the hospital with minor injuries.
