Описание: Watch 400 firefighters and more than 32 fire trucks battling one of the most spectacular blazes in Cincinnati history. The fire at one of the city’s oldest and most prestigious businesses, the Baldwin Piano Co., lit up the night sky for miles on March 4, 1964. The fire destroyed four seven-story wooden buildings where wood and other supplies were stored, but firefighters managed to stop the flames from spreading 75 feet to the main building, where craftsmen made some of the world’s best pianos. Today that nearly century-old, eight-story building, which is on the National Register of Historic Places, still stands proudly at Gilbert Avenue and the entrance to Eden Park. No one makes pianos there anymore – that stopped in 2001, and the building was converted to loft-style apartments in 2017 – but it maintains a piece of Cincinnati history.
