Additional companies were requested, making this a Greater Alarm structure fire.

It took 73 firefighters 22 minutes to extinguish the blaze. There were no reported injuries. The cause of the fire is under investigation.; FS 9; Batt 1; Central Bureau; Council District 14; BC1 BC11 BC13 BC5 CM22 E10 E11 E2 E202 E203 E209 E210 E227 E3 E4 E9 EA1 EM1 HR3 RA209 RA3 RA4 RA803 SQ21 T10 T2 T27 T3 T9 UR3 UR88; CH9; 14 15; Nicholas Prange

Update Major Emergency Structure Fire #ThirdStreetFire 06/08/2021 INC#0089

Update #ThirdStreetFire Major Emergency Structure Fire; INC#0089; 07:45AM; 203 E 3rd St; https://bit.ly/353F9ne; Downtown; We are now indexing the (multi-address) building of fire origin as 203 E 3rd Street. From a peak of 150 Firefighters assigned to this Major Emergency fire during the night, 78 are still on scene, continuing their defensive posture with hose lines to fully extinguish stubborn flames that remain within the century old 23,790 square-foot, 3-story masonry building that housed five businesses (including two that are believed to have sold 'smoking supplies') on the ground level, with two floors of commercial storage above. When firefighters arrived, there was heavy fire visible and a cacophony of small explosions, with a large number of pressurized gas cylinders littering the street. Though no firefighters or civilian were injured by those canisters, or in the ensuing fire, flames from the involved building and/or canisters appear to have ignited tents and debris in a homeless encampment across the street, as well as spread within the structure to involve all three floor of the fire building, ultimately burning through the roof. Neither the structure nor tenants of a modern 6-story retirement apartment community separated by an alley to the east, sustained any injury or direct impact from the fire, and were allowed to remain in their homes. The fire was also prevented from spreading to an immediately adjacent unoccupied 5 story center-hallway apartment building to the north, that was undergoing renovation. Firefighters expect to remain at the scene through the day. The cause of the fire remains under active investigation.; FS 9; Batt 1; Central Bureau; Council District 14; AR1 BC1 BC11 BC13 BC18 BC2 BC5 CM21 CM22 E10 E17 E2 E20 E201 E202 E203 E205 E209 E210 E211 E215 E220 E27 E3 E4 E9 EA1 EA2 EM1 EM11 EM13 FP210 HR3 JT1 JT5 PI1 RA10 RA209 RA3 RA4 RA803 RA809 RA827 RA9 RM4 SQ21 T1 T10 T11 T15 T2 T20 T3 T5 T9 UR27 UR5 UR88; CH7; 12 13 14; Brian Humphrey
