Large black and white photograph of ladder and hose drills being performed outside of the Detroit Fire Department Training Academy at West Warren Avenue and Lawton Street. Three firefighters climb a ladder apparatus' ladder up to the top of a fourth story outcropping on the building, where three other firefighters stand. A man in a peaked cap gestures toward them from the ground. Meanwhile firefighters standing on each level of a five story fire escape hold a hose extending from a hose apparatus on the parked on the ground below. Signs on the building's wall indicate both the height, as well as the length of a ladder needed to scale to that height. Several other cars are parked around the edges of the lot. The photo is mounted on linen.
