Man, 19, gravely injured in Los Angeles high-rise fire dies.
At least 11 injured, including baby, in high-rise blaze
The fire displaced 339 residents, and some wondered why the management company didn't install sprinklers after another destructive blaze seven years ago. In Chicago, a 2015 law required residential high-rises that were built before 1975 to install fire sprinklers. In New York City, many older residential buildings lack sprinklers, a fact that made headlines in 2018 when a fire at Trump Tower killed a resident and injured firefighters.
Los Angeles Fire Chief Ralph Terrazas recommended in 2017 that sprinklers be installed in all 55 high-rise buildings that still lacked them. At the time, the department estimated that the updates would cost about $6,000 per unit. Images of flames spewing from the seventh floor of the Barrington Plaza were eerily similar to those from the 2013 fire that caused injuries and gutted the 11th floor.
