The 1989
San Francisco Bay earthquake photos.
In 1989 two Ladder54 firefighters arrived in the bay area for
heavy rescue instructor training with Oakland and other bay area
firefighters. The photos are of the Cypress collapse on I-880
in Oakland to I-80 after the earthquake. These are some of the
pictures. Several were taken right after rescues and during aftershocks
of the quake. Many of the photos are too gruesome to publicly
show (as you can imagine).
