Yep, just down from the corner with st 5. Quite a crowd gathered at 10.45am to watch. A number of fire trucks there with smoke still billowing from the top floor (level 4?). Could see firemen on the balcony on level 3 below.

Mrs Cargo heard anecdotally that the fire was caused by renovation work??

How heartbreaking, as if they needed any more problems

"...welding accident took place and required the use of six fire trucks..."

"The fire took place at 10 a.m. on February 28..."

"took place" sounds like it was organised. Occurred?

"The bar was called Amazing."

It is now called Ablazing.

If it feels like it's on fire after visiting street 136, you need to go see a Dr.

I'll show myself to the door.
