View of a fire truck and a spaghetti junction of hoses

20 December 1966

Street scene after the fire appears to have brought under control. Interesting view from the Para Rubber building on the corners of the Cashel and Manchester streets, a fire truck in the background and in the foreground a spaghetti junction of hoses lying curved and around a pedestrian post, amongst a water logged footpath and street.
