Monday evening turned chaotic for the Highland Park Fire Department when they received an urgent call about an attic fire just after 7 PM. The incident occurred in the 1400 block of Sheridan Road, where flames were quickly spotted emanating through the roof of a large, historic, three-story brick residence. As the initial reports came in, the severity prompted the department to elevate the response level to a working fire alert. Mutual aid was swiftly requested from neighboring towns including Glencoe, Deerfield, and Highwood.
When the first responding units arrived, they found themselves facing significant challenges due to the complex architecture of the building, which included multiple roof levels that complicated efforts to access the attic space. This issue was compounded further by the intense fire raging through the upper floors. The escalating situation led to a second-alarm activation, drawing additional resources from Northbrook, Winnetka, Lake Bluff, and Knollwood. Support vehicles also arrived from Northfield and Wheeling. Wilmette sent a squad unit, while ambulances on-site were dispatched from Highland Park, Highwood, Prospect Heights, and Libertyville.
Photographs captured by Tim Olk and Larry Shapiro vividly depict the intensity of the blaze. One image shows thick smoke billowing from the attic space above the third floor, highlighting the extent of the damage. Another captures flames licking at the roof’s peak, emphasizing the firefighters’ struggle against the roaring inferno. Despite these challenges, Highland Park Engine 32, a modern Spartan Gladiator/Crimson engine, managed to establish a water supply almost immediately by tapping into a hydrant across the street. Highwood’s intervention was equally crucial, deploying their 75' HME/Smeal quint truck to assist in the operation.
Efforts to control the fire focused primarily on the upper levels, although water and smoke infiltration spread throughout the entire structure. Northfield’s ladder truck remained on standby as a precautionary measure but wasn’t needed to actively engage in firefighting operations. Tim Olk and Larry Shapiro both documented the event extensively, providing valuable visual records of the incident. Tim’s comprehensive gallery can be viewed [here](link), while Larry’s collection is available [here](link).
The collective efforts of all involved departments eventually brought the fire under control, sparing the lower floors from extensive damage despite the widespread impact on the upper sections. It was a testament to the coordination and resilience of emergency services working together to protect the community.
There are many kinds of materials for preparing microspheres, which are mainly divided into natural polymer microspheres and synthetic polymer microspheres. The compatibility of microspheres is a very important aspect, including biocompatibility, which usually depends on the material from which the microsphere is prepared, and geometric compatibility, which is related to the roundness of the microsphere. There is no precise limit on the diameter of microspheres, which can generally be divided into nanospheres and microspheres. Nanoscale microspheres are also commonly referred to as nanospheres.
