“Happy Land Social Club” was a small illegal nightclub in the Bronx. On March 25, 1990, it became the site of one of the deadliest fires in U.S. history when a man set the entrance on fire after an argument. 😡😡😡 The club had no proper exits, no sprinklers, and barely any safety in place. Once the flames hit, nearly everyone inside was trapped. In just minutes, 87 people lost their lives. 👼🏼👼🏼👼🏼 The tragedy forced NYC to crack down on illegal clubs and tighten fire-safety enforcement. 🧯
