    Default Huge fire in Millrise (Canvas)

    Is anyone near Millrise? We just heard that the Canvas condo complex is going up in flames.

    Call your realtor and keep the fuck away from me.

    Note to self: don't let A790 ever put an offer on your house.



    On a more serious note, I hope everyone got out okay and that the Firemen can contain the blaze.

    I live two minutes away from there. That building is full of crackheads, no wonder it's ablaze. Sucks though because there's lots of family's around there. Christ, that's a big one. I can see the smoke from my driveway, it is really really thick stuff.

    My office is just north of there, in the southland office park... Looks like some nasty smoke.

    Now would be a wonderful time to go to Sobey's and pick up some smoked cheddar.

    EDIT: Holy shit I thought they had it pretty much out but the helicopter just showed the inside and it's still engulfed.

    That entire building is a goner. Roof caved in a while back, I thought it was just about out but now the entire east side is still going strong. Settled down though, the smoke isn't a thick black any more.
