Fired

These townhomes on the part of Riverside Boulevard that actually runs along the riverside have been stalled in construction for over a year. Yesterday they got torched. The fire was so hot, it jumped the road and burned the grass on the levee, too. On the map, the footprints of the five incomplete units of 24 that were to be built are shown on the vacant area. Of the 5, only half of this end unit is still standing. Insurance? Vandalism? Accident? Stay tuned ...

It looks like the fire department concentrated (rightly) on protecting the apartment building next door.

The utility people were there disconnecting the utilities yesterday.

Wonder if we'll ever see a police report. Do we still have a neighborhood police office in Greenhaven?

It would probably be the fire dept. that conducted any investigation. And I've found nothing on it.
