Wild Fig sighting

Originally I thought I was in zone 6b but more recently charts show it as 7... ANYWAYS, there is a fig tree is that so neglected next to a public school near my house. The bush/tree is usually filled with the birds going to town but after our harsh winter last year, this year's yield was not as good. I'm curious if anyone can identify what type it is? If not what else do you need to see to get a better idea?

Thanks all!

Classic photos for ID include leaves and a quarter for size reference.  Also seeing the osteole and fig cut in half to see the insides are good help as well.  Thank you for the post.

Looks like a nice fig, in addition to Greg's suggestions, a description of the taste would be helpful.

I'm guessing a Mt Etna type fig, but definitely need to see insides and leaves

the tree itself:)

figs look so good so far.
