Fire Destroys 25 Arthur Street

Note: The date is actually Dec 31, 2011, NOT 2008.



4th floor completely burnt and gone.















In a sad note, the building I lived in for 10 years has been destroyed by a fire. I moved myself, g/f, and her mom & I out of there last August and we moved to Halifax. We've only been in halifax for 6 months. Today I find out a couple of people we know have lost everything, and they did NOT have any insurance. I know, incredible when you think that insurance only costs $220 per year (or $20 per month).

Below are some pictures I took today. Really sad. I ran into some of the people I knew down there, they're staying with sons, daughters, and friends. Disregard the date on the pictures - since I lost my old Fuji last month I had to use an older Pentax I had. Apparently the fire was started by welding that was being done on the outside of the balconies. Morons.
