Fire data shows that the Black community unfortunately claims the highest number of fire deaths yearly. The Touray Tower Fire & Alarms Project (TTFAP) spawned from the tragic Bronx fire that killed 17 residents on January 9th 2022 at a high rise apartment building nicknamed Touray Tower. The fire, claiming 17 Black lives from the West African community, set a grim record for the deadliest NYC fire in 30 years.
