Английская Википедия:Hotel Royal fire
Материал из Онлайн справочника
The Hotel Royal fire occurred on February 7, 1892, at the Hotel Royal in New York City, killing 28 people.[1][2] The fire began in the hotel's elevator shaft, where the night engineer was performing maintenance work by the light of a candle. The candle's flame either ignited a gas leak in the shaft, or it caught a dry tinder such as dust and was then flamed by the strong winds blowing through the shaft.[3] A coroner's jury assigned no fault for the fire and made no recommendations for safety improvements; however, legislation was introduced in the New York State Assembly that sought to tighten the building code in light of the fire as well as the 1891 Park Place disaster.[4][5]
