From a really tall rooftop in Midtown, we can see a HUGE, tall fire in the far distance, maybe near Jefferson before the Jeffersonian. It appears that it would have to be a pretty tall building. Anyone know which one? Ugh.

Just drove by Gratiot and McDougall, there were 5-6 trucks. Thank goodness it doesn't seem to be a tall building, but the fire was very tall to be seen from where it was. House explosion?
That is strange, no alarms were heard by us. We live near there. We hear fire truck alarms daily, I cross myself and I am not Catholic. We have friends and neighbors who are fire fighters.Quote:

My house is insured for over half a million for years and would really be pissed if fire came near it. Happened once before but we were not the owners, I think it was maybe 15 yrs ago. I just want my area intact.
Just Arson folks! crazy folks burning Detroit down. Putting a end to old middle class blue and white homes white families built long ago.
It's sad really. 7:45 its raining and I have already heard my first fire truck.Quote:

Ha ha, funny Danny.
