Quoted comment by FTW420: Awesome clip, I wonder which street that is they're riding down.
I think that might have been Euclid Avenue. Notice in the second part there was an arched entryway on one of the buildings that looked like one of the arcades. Can't be sure, though.
What got my attention was that they took care so that every pump as well as the hook and ladder had a matched team of horses.

Quoted comment by brainmonster: I simply can't believe people actually got shit done back then.
I bet if you showed them a video of people today phased out in front of the tv with msnbc or in front of the computer on Twitter they'd wonder the same.

Dunno. There wasn't much info with this clip other than it may have been a drill, hence the crowds lining the street.
