Fire Escapes: Blue
October 28, 2008 | Filed Under Apartment Buildings, Blue, Colors, Fire Escapes

Black is the standard color of fire escapes in the city, but if you look around, you’ll see various colored ones, too. I liked this pretty blue fire escape and since I couldn’t decide on which of the two photos to post (that happens a lot!), I’m posting both.
A reader in a previous post wondered what happens if there’s a fire in the room that leads to the fire escape. How would one escape the fire? If that happens, then most likely you can exit the apartment through the front door.

The blue shocked me when I saw it but it is much prettier than black!
I only see one photo and a box saying one has been removed. I’ll come back later and check.
That’s right,Paz: the fire escape is a possibility more to exit the apartment. Interesting picture.
About the second image, I am reading: “This image or video has been moved or deleted”.
Yes, that’s what I wanted to say too, that second one does not show!
But I love the first picture!
It would be a ‘blue’ day if you had to use it. Ishall have to look at fire escapes more often to see what they look like around here.
Paz: That is a neat capture, I don’t see them often but they are always black.
j’aime beaucoup cette photo
You really have a rainbow of coloured fire escapes there – I remember a red one you posted earlier. (You need to re-link your second photo from Photobucket as you have either moved it, edited it or deleted it and it has broken the link.) Have a great day!
Love the blue, it’s like they are trying to make you happy, of prettify the building even though the escape has to be there.
Paz,
Always the colour will embellish our life!
And this scale is really beautiful but also ties up with the colour of building!

I like the blue fire escape, I want to see another pretty one.
