2:01 PM: SFD has sent a “full response” to a possible fire at Delridge/Henderson. The first engine on scene isn’t seeing anything so far.
2:13 PM: Firefighters tell our crew that someone had set a small fire inside the vacant building on the northeast corner (itself damaged by fire three years ago and now slated for demolition and redevelopment), apparently to try to warm up, but the fire is out, no further damage done.
Radio traffic reports squatters in boarded up service station. All units code green except engine 11
It wasn’t a service station; it was an auto shop. But yes, we’ve updated, with crews at the scene telling us someone had set a small fire to try to get warm.
Not to be petty, but isn’t a service station a place to get your auto serviced (auto shop)? (as opposed to a filling station where you buy gas).
That place has been an attractive nuisance for years. The fence they put up wouldn’t keep out an arthritic beagle.
Is there any date set for the (proper) destruction of that thing before it takes the residences nearby with it?
No date – the project has to have at least one more design review meeting; it passed phase 1 earlier this month:

The demolition permit is a little further along (status “reviews completed”):

Sorry, comment time is over.
