Triangle: From the Fire

Posted: May 3rd, 2011

On March 25th, 1911, 146 workers, mostly women and girls, died in a horrendous fire at the Triangle Shirtwaist factory, which was located on the upper floors of this building, on the corner of Washington and Green. Recently a unique remembrance took place at the Judson Memorial Church nearby.
