Looks like it was an apartment bldg. under construction?

That's what the news says. So no residents. Coulda been worse.

The Flying Biscuit is serving first responders a thank you meal today. I love that place.
I was downtown last night at Trophy.

10 buildings were involved, news reports say it was new construction so there was no fire suppression system, was going from building to building, block to block. Ashes were falling in Clayton 10 miles away
